Hen Incubation and Nesting Techniques for Hens
The guide advises maintaining a hen's body temperature around 106 to 107 degrees Fahrenheit during incubation. Place the sitting hen in a quiet nest, move her with care at night, and use china eggs to ensure she stays on the nest. Lightly darken the area to reduce restlessness and confine hens during hatching, removing chicks only if they become unsettled. Do not disturb until hatch completion. For cool weather limit to ten eggs, spring allows twelve to fifteen. Dust the hen with insect powder, coating feathers especially around the vent and under wings, and sprinkle powder in the nest.
