I put eggs under a broody hen on July 26th.
I expected them to hatched early this week but went out to check and saw one egg with a hole in it and could hear peeping. I can see black (australorps) also. It seems a little early for them to start though.
The hen recently moved all the eggs (twice) from the nest box into the main coop area so I’m wondering if she cracked one in the process and it wasn’t actually ready.
Edit: I went back out to grab a picture for my wife and in the picture realized a second one is hatching.
