Well my broody is doing well.
We transfered fertile eggs that we had in the incubator under her while she was out eating and now instead of sitting on three golf balls and two non fertile eggs, she is sitting on eight fertile eggs.
Also I heard that the hen can lay fertile eggs for 10 days and then the rest are not fertile but, she has 10 days worth of eggs and they are all fertile, I candled the two eggs that were not layed within the 10 days and one in fertile! Can she lay fertile eggs for more than ten days??
All the eggs she is sitting on are hers.
