one of my hens is broody and clumsy and keeps breaking her eggs!!

can i put the eggs in an incubator for the remaining time??

i have other eggs in at the mo which will hatch at a later date.
If you do things well, do them better. Be daring, be first, be different, be just.

i would say no as you could have some germs on the hens eggs and it could kill your eggs in the incy

plus if they are going to hatch at a different time i would not do it

its not worth risking the eggs in your incubator
