Two hens snuggling in same nest box?

[ElizaMay]

Thank you sir. I was just about to inform these "chicken professors" that at no time did you mention the presence of a rooster. My question is, do these guys just stray off topic giving answers to questions that haven't been asked? Or, and one of the professors said "just slip a couple eggs under them" I sincerely hope he meant two fertilized eggs, however they could very well be just like most everyone else I've met and just don't know that every egg a hen lays must be "pre certified" by a rooster before it ever sees the light of day if there's any hope of having a baby chick inside.

I was wondering if she was trying to get broodies to hatch fertile eggs or not, too, and eventually the question was answered by the OP.
Some posters are fairly new, and don't always include the pertinent details, but people here are often anxious to help and don't necessarily get those details right off. It doesn't mean they don't know that roosters fertilize eggs before they are shelled or leave the hen.
Please stick around and read posts for a little while and then *you* may find you won't have to ask or inform, 'professor'
