Uh oh, did you notice any odors? Oozing is not a good sign. Do you have a bright flashlight, if so you can carefully candle the eggs.

Yea they smell ok well I tryed :-( thanks guys I'm still learning an so is the lil momma but she's doing great I think an I'm doing my best lol I'll get them gone asap is ther any reason this sort of thing happens? O an one more question if I move her nest will she still sit on it I would like to move her in to the bird house cuz of the ants is ther anything I can use to get rid of them?

If she has been sitting outside I would dif rec you move her into a secure house, if she is still sitting on eggs then move her into a secure house once she sees her eggs and has privacy she should get back on them. How many eggs are left in her nest?

Seven dust would probably be okay to use just make sure none of the animals are around when you put it down so no one inhales the dust. including you.

my geese won't eat tomatoes, only my ducks and chickens will eat tomatoes.
