Well i was told dont now if its truwe or not that there for to show the hens were to lay and if they try to eat an egg and you put that in then they can peck but dont get any were so they dont try and peck or eat the eggs because they get tierd of it .

Dont count on it though 'cause it may not be true

They can be used in this manner but they can also be put under a broody hen while you take a few days to get your hands on the eggs that you want them to sit on.
