My naughty chickens like to climb on top of my broody hen when she's in there and they cracked open an egg and ate a half formed chick. Some of the eggs have egg yoke on them. Is there any way to clean them off? Will it effect the hatch? I moved her to a kennel so no more chicken can get to her.
If they just got "some" yolk on them---I would leave them alone---if they are covered---maybe take your thumb nail and push some of it off.
Ok thanks! I was worried about pushing yoke off because wouldn't it take of some of the protective layer on the egg?
