Hello! So i have a pair 1 ro and 1 hen my first every pair of chickens. They are quite old, i exactly but they are over 5 1/2 years old.
I dont have any off spings of the two left, and in their honor (cause they are beginning to show sings of being at the end of their journey) i would like
to hatch 2-3 chicks from the "originals".
My question is given the fact that they are quite old, and given the fact that the eggs that she is provideing are becoming smaller and smaller,
will i have any chance to hatch someting? Or will the fertility be too low for that?
I dont want my broody to sit for 3 weeks on bad eggs. (I could candle course, but im worried that even if they develop they will lack the nutrients from a good proper egg)
