Hi, I have a hen who was sitting on 6 eggs. She hatched 3 and "abandoned" the rest. I grabbed them as soon as I noticed to put into incubator. They were cold when I grabbed them. I have candlesticked them and when I move the egg, the insides seem to slosh around.
I don't remember this when I incubated my first batch.
Does this mean the babies have died? Should I just quit?
 
That's what I'm thinking. There are somewhat developed chicks in there, they just slosh around inside the egg. Not held firm.
