ok, so our Broody was due to hatch babies on the 22nd, all day no action, yesterday no action, and this morning I havn't been to check, when I candled a few eggs it looked like they were doing well, dark mass on one side, on the other a HUGE aircell, they don't stink, and non have busted, she's still on the nest, and as protective as ever, when should we give up, and pull her, as she's getting rather thin, or will she give up after a few days, if she'd sit for 4 more weeks, I'd give her some mallard eggs, but thats too much strain on her body.
what should I do if there are no peeps by tonight?
