Your broody girls can sit on a clutch of eggs for days on end, and nothing will develop inside those eggs aside from bacteria. Our roosters are very active fellows, so this is a safe supposition. Can fertilized eggs develop into chicks? Only if they are properly incubated, either by a broody hen or in an incubator.
Collected fresh from the nestbox, fertilized eggs are just as safe and tasty to eat as non-fertile eggs. When not writing or chasing after chickens and children, Ana teaches martial arts and yoga and is a competitive triathlete and runner.

Eggs are one of the common food item in our households from breakfast to dinner, eggs are indulged in various ways.
So, initially i little talk about the eggs. We all are know that the eggs are available in many colour types. Some of those are brown eggs and white eggs. Brown eggs are laid by brown-feathered chickens with red earlobes and white ones are laid by white-feathered chickens with white or light colour earlobes. Brown eggs are associated with organic, which might make them seem a healthier choice. Yes, the taste is different because more with the diet of the chicken that laid it but that has nothing to be with quality or nutritional profile of the egg.
The chickens are fed a different kind of diet which impacts the quality and taste of the egg. So if you were to feed a brown and a white chicken the same kind of food, the difference in taste would go unnoticed. Now I am going to talk about the topic of fertilized eggs. For a chicken to develop from an egg, it must be fertilized. Given the right nutrients, hens will lay eggs with or without having been in the presence of a rooster. For an egg to become fertilized, a hen and rooster must mate prior to the information and laying of the egg.
The simplest way to tell if an egg is fertilized is called candling the egg. Candling is nothing but a process of handling a strong night above or below the egg to observe the embryo. A candling lamp consists of a electric bulb covered by a plastic or aluminum container that has a handle and an aperture.
The egg is placed against this aperture and illuminated by the light. If you do not have a candling lamp, try using a torch.
But this process is done in a darkened room. If the egg appears in opaque, it is probably a fertilized egg otherwise the egg is unfertilized. These are the technical words to define the fertilization of an egg. I cannot guarantee that all the fertile eggs will hatch but I can guarantee that the eggs to be arrive in good condition. Most of them people are buy an eggs from grocery stores and the grocery buys an eggs from chicken farms.
