Broody hen
I have a broody hen. She’s sitting in eggs but she (or her roommate) keeps laying more eggs. I put an “X” on the original three eggs. Should I remove any additional eggs? Will she eventually stop laying until they all hatch? Will she abandon the next once done hatch and the other eggs will just die?
