One of my hens las laid 6 eggs a week ago and she doesn't seem to be in with them . Every time I look she is out so is it because its her first clutch and doesn't know what to do or they are infertile or ,is it because its been so warm lately?

Some first timers do so.
Is there any change in the breeding setup like cage location, nest box change etc?

My hen was a little like this at first, but when she had all the eggs laid she started to sit on them most of the day.

No change. There are 6 eggs in there but I think they must be infertile I put my hand over them this morning and they felt cold

With 6 eggs, she should be in most of the time. How long does she spend outside?

She has thrown 2 out of the nest and the rest were stone cold so I have removed them as she wasnt in with them at all

Hope the second clutch is better.
