My Old English Game/Serama hen named Rosie has been broody since around April 13th. I had 2 unfertilized eggs under her. Well today (April 23rd) I put two Americana eggs under her. Those eggs are fertile. I am really worried that something is going to happen. I wasn't worried when she had two unfertilized eggs under her because they weren't fertile so it didn't bother me. I also have an incubator running... Should I just put the eggs in there or give her a chance?
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
