Many of us don't breed, so apologies for the 'slight :wink: ' lack of response.

I believe this should be no problem if you have the right equipment ie Incubator - or a warm Rayburn / Aga Plate Warmer area.
Apparently this is what they did in days of old.

I would imagine the answer is - if they want to do, they will and nature would tell them otherwise?

Chhers, Richard
