Hi everyone,
As some of you may know, i have a broody hen at the moment.
She had 5 eggs and two of them hatched the other day.
Yesterday i candled the 3 eggs to see how they were doing: they seemed fine, and i hope they will hatch soon..
My question is, broody has been on her nest for about 3 weeks now, and although she takes care of her two babies, i was thinking of moving her 3 eggs to the incubator.
Just so mom can spend even more time with the 2.
Or should i let it be and wait for the 3 to hatch?
Thanks for your reply in advance,
Nathalie
