Hey y'all!
I have a broody hen who is faithfully sitting on 6 eggs. When I got hatching eggs, I put 6 under her and 7 in the incubator. Of the 7 in the incubator, only 3 have made it to today (Day 11). The eggs under our mama hen seem to be doing better than the ones in the incubator, so I wanted to give them to our broody hen to hatch and raise all of them herself. Both the set under her and the set in the incubator are on the same day! She is proven broody!
