Description

I got a call from a friend: for two weeks all eggs had been disappearing and now a chicken was gone too. After a short search I discovered what was going on. Their 5 chickens had found a new place to lay their eggs, and now one of them had decided to incubate them all. :) Very sweet, but impossible. Eggs will warm up a little, start growing and then cool down and stop growing. Warm enough to not die, but too cold to grow. In a situation like this, only a few will hatch, if any ...and you know me...
~ A Chick Called Albert

Now the next hurdle was to get the mum to accept all of the chicks… I know this can be done, especially if I can make the chicks feel the warmth of their mum.
One last tip: mark already incubated eggs with an X. Like this you will be able to check what are fresh layed eggs by other hens.
