You sure DO!!

Holy cow, that's a lot of eggs...you'll more than likely have quite a few to toss out. Are you planning on moving her to her own area in the coop/run?

I thought by the way that second hen was so concerned with my presence that she was in on it too and I was right. They are both sitting on all the eggs. I am thinking if I should move them into a secure spot but that part of the yard is pretty safe and I don't think any more hens are adding to the PILE so I might leave them. I hope they hatch by the end of the month before I move .. .
That would be cool to see that many chicks hatched. The most I have seen is 21 Muscovy duckling hatch together.
