The new eggs did not work out too well. For some reason she was down to 2 eggs this morning. One egg was rotten and bursted, we candled the last egg and there are no veins, no movement, awkward weight, and we decided to dispose of it.
So now we will have to break her if she keeps being broody. It may be possible for us to pick up some young chicks to try putting them under her at night, but would that be too risky and not worth the new chicks potentiality being mistreated in some way? A store about an hour from here currently has some NH reds. I think they might be a few days old by now, so I'm disinclined to try. Any opinions?
