What to do after the eggs hatch?
The female needs to be removed immedialtly before she is killed by the male. The male will look after the ova until they develop into free swimming fry then he needs to be removed before he eats the fry. You will then need food for the fry, so now is the time to start making 'Infusoria cultures' for the frys' first food and get 'Micro worm/Brine shrimp cultures' going for later. Failing that, you will need to get some specialised fry food for egg layers from your local pet shop.
Do bird eggs have to be incubated?
No. In the old days, before incubators, setting hens sat upon the eggs to keep them warm. I have a hen that sits on her eggs, even though they are not fertile. I have to lift her up to collect them.
Today some people still let hens sit on the eggs, but incubators have a higher success rate. They are more reliable.

Egg whites contain more protein (specifically Albumen) than egg yolks do. So as you whisk them, the protein is able to trap the air bubbles within, surrounding each bubble with strands of the protein. This protein is also what makes them so unstable.

Why is the shell of an egg strong?
An eggshell is built on a structurally amazing shape. The stretched-ovoid shape evenly distributes pressure throughout the egg if pressed from the top, allowing the egg to withstand forces much greater than a shape that distributes the pressure to a certain point on the surface, like a cube, which would stress at the edges.

How do you know the sex of a chicken when it has hatched?
It's very difficult. First you have to gently squeeze them so poop falls out, then you check their bottom and look for a lump, which is a male's sex organ. It is very difficult and only professionals can do it accurately. I've tried it with no success. The easiest way is to look for a personality. If they seem bossy and pick on others, it may be male. This also isn't always accurate. The next way is to look at their tail feathers. If they are short, most likely it's a female, roosters have longer tail feathers. This method is most accurate for me. Of course after 6 months whether your rooster crows or your hen lays an egg will be 100% accurate. My grandmother, who was an avid chicken person, once advised me that you can pick the chickuo by the scruff of the neck. Hens will just basically hang ther and not fight. Roosters on the other hand will flop and fight. With that I can get a 7 out of 10 ratio

Why would an chicken egg not hatch?
If the chicken egg doesn't hatch, it might not be ready to hatch. If it has been under the mother hen or in the incubator for 21 days (and has been turned for the first 18 days, twice a day), it should be ready to hatch. Some chickens can hatch at 21-24 days though. If they won't hatch at all, they are probably dead, maybe from being too cold, maybe not even fertilized. They also could be stuck in the egg shell, and if you think they are, the best thing you can do, is listen for sounds that the chicken would make (cheeping, moving round (or trying to)).
