One of my hens is setting on some eggs. How long does it take before they start hatching? She decided to do this outside my outdoor pen I have set up for my chickens. My concern is wild predators and my dogs will kill the chicks once they hatch and discover them. What should I do? Move her & the eggs into a outdoor cage for safety or leave her alone? Not sure what to do. New at raising chickens (a little over a year). None of my hens had done this before.
