Hatching Chicken Eggs Naturally - Step by Step Guide

Step 4 : The real eggs

time for real fertilized eggs.
if you have a good rooster you can use your own eggs
other possibilities are:
- exchange with other chicken owners
- buy fertilized eggs online

Your hen will accept every kind of egg, every breed.

choose eggs:
- without cracks
- normal sized - No extreme big ones and no extreme small ones ( depends on the breed)

wait for the night or darken your coop, remove the fake eggs and 

replace the carefully with the real ones.
From now on it takes 21 days until the chicks will hatch!!! - mark it in your calendar


if you have eggs of different breeds you may mark them with a pencil.
