we just take our eggs and eat them and IF and when a chicken becomes broody ( wants to sit on their eggs and not get up) then we decide if we are going to let her If we decide ok we will let her we draw a circle on the eggs under her and any that day we want to add to her and put them under her and wait then later ( someone help me with exactly how long) we hold each one in from of a candle to see if they have something in them if they do put them back under her
And you mark them because everyone will keep laying eggs in there daily so you keep take Gn them all out except the marked ones and then in a month or close ( like 21 days or so) they should hatch
But that’s IF she wants to set and IF they are fertile etc

good luck

Wow!! Great information! I have so much to learn..lol...should I wait to let her lay on them after she starts laying stronger eggs? She just laid her first small egg yesterday and I am learning after about 30 days those are the eggs to consider doing anything with. Thank you for insight on that if you have any.

yes I’d wait but I’d also wait for mor warmer days to even think about hatching eggs but that’s just me

You could also start a thread in the managing your flock section and ask about when to hatch eggs as far as the age of the hen goes. I think you want them to be a little more mature. If you want to keep the first one you can poke little holes in the ends and blow the contents out to save the shell. Congratulations on the beautiful egg!
