I have a question about my two broody silkies,I have ordered six white silkie eggs(I have wanted whites for awhile)from ebay and they should be here tomorow or the next day.The girls have been on these eggs for about 10 days,my question is if I put a fence in between them and give one the six that are comming and let the other have the ones they have been sitting on when they hatch will the other one get off her eggs when she sees the chicks that are so close to her?Or should I give one three and the other three of the eggs I ordered?They keep stealing eggs frpm one another so I will have to seperate them with fencing if I let one keep the older eggs because they will hatch at different times.
