So...my new broody had a nasty egg break under her. Only one egg hatched after that, and the chick died. I think she tried to help it - she's a little too earnest. Anyway, I have chicks hatching in my incubator that I would love to give to her, but I don't know if it will be safe since she had all the rotten goo on her underside. There is still the smallest odor to her when I pick her up. The egg broke @ a week ago.
She is still VERY in to being a mommy, and I would like to give her the chicks that have just hatched, but I don't want them to get some vile infection. Any thoughts?
