Two of my five hens have gone broody. I don't really have a good place to separate them from the other hens, so they've been kicking the other girls out of the nesting boxes and sitting on all the eggs all day long for the last few days. I'm actually not sure how the other hens are getting in there to lay eggs, but there are new eggs under them daily, so they must be somehow.
Anyway, my question is...Is it okay to eat the eggs that have been sitting under them all day? They are very, very warm when I am able to collect them in the afternoon, so I'm afraid they might not be very fresh if they go from warm to sitting in my fridge for a few days.
Any thoughts?
