Not sure what else to title the post!
My broody was on six eggs, four hatched over the last two days, the fifth this morning (with some help but only because of the naughty chicks pecking at its bum!)
the last egg, she has been kicking out from under her several times... just figured it was a dud. well when I went to grab it this afternoon after she still wouldnt sit on it and toss it-- it CHEEPED at me!!
well, dang it. so the egg is currently residing in my bra, snuggled under a boob, and I am wondering what the heck do I do.
HOW long from hearing that cheeping do the eggs normally hatch?? will it be another day yet? two? a couple of hours? if its only a couple of hours, well I guess I can be a mama hen, but if its longer I am going to have to fire up the incubator to help finish hatching this one (I had plans with the kids in the morning, and I do NOT think that the older ladies at the knit and visit morning are going to understand why I have an egg in my bra
)
what to do?? what to do....
oh. and since its found its place near my "heart", its been cheeping like crazy as it warms up. does this mean anything?? like happy happy happy, or its not comfy?
