These are the developing eggs. Some are 2 days overdue. I don't know if that's because they stopped developing or because they didn't get proper heat. I took some eggs out so the developing ones would get proper heat. Can anyone tell me if any of these are going to hatch? One of them is...

3 days ago my first egg hatched. The rest of the eggs have not. I have them under a small broody and sometimes they don't get a lot of heat because of the distribution of heat. This one was a small egg which was directly in the center of all her eggs. I've been waiting and yesterday I was sure...

recently, my black polish bantam died and I loved her so much I decided to get a new one in memory of the late pipsquiek. This new one, peanut, is starting to grow in white and black. Should I be worried? Some chickens change colors but pipsquiek automatically grew in black. Now, this chickens...
