So I have a pair nesting in 1 corner of the 2nd section just built a nest on the floor all seemed good with the eggs, went out about 10 day's ago both eggs just scattered on the floor not even in the nest & both stone cold. I put them back but the pair didn't go back on the nest straight away, I'm not sure if the cock had got into a flight with another cock on the floor, anyway I thought there not going to hatch but just put them back if they didn't start to sit then nothing lost as it was from a pair of race birds, love match pair.
Today I opened up & looked in the section to find both had hatched out, so don't give up, try the eggs I just didn't think they would be viable.

I didn't hold out much hope, I thought they would of been dead in shell.
That's all without lighting or heat in the loft.

I've got two of my pairs that have opted for the floor too!!
Both pairs down on eggs, and now one of the cocks has chosen to take a box as well!
Funny things ain't they!
