Hi Jeremy,

The hen eggs will start to incubate once all the eggs have been laid and the hen starts to sit in earnest or you put the eggs in an incubator.

Hope that helps.

Just to let you know that I have set up a free forum with a section on hens. http://farmingfriends.com/forums/forum.php?id=8

What type of chickens do you have?

Kind regards

Sara @ farmingfriends
