Will the other more quiet make the loud crow sound when it gets older?

That's a cockerel and the crow will get louder yes. he's definitely feathered enough to go outside in the coop.

So, one makes more sounds than the other? Yes, if they are a cockerel (which looks to be so) they will crow when they grow up. Sometimes rooster will briefly stop crowing for a few reasons, but they will almost always crow at most points reliably.

Thats up to you. Craigslist would be a better option

I post on craigslist. I ask for a donation for feeding them, I usually get $5-10 for a rooster that is pure bred, but of course you can give them away. It probably depends on the amount of demand in your area.

You can post to sell/give them on here. Is New Jersey your state? There is a page for that state, but you can look into this section, too.

Where did you get these from? If these were supposed to be pullets, you may want to buy sex-links or barred rocks, or another breed that is easy to sex at hatch. Some places have guarantees on how many they are allowed to be wrong about, and will give you your money back.

Can you eat a newly fertilized egg?

Can you eat a newly fertilized egg?

Sure. The problems come when you try to eat it after it's been sat on by a hen for a week or more. So if you're going to eat fertilized eggs (many do, they taste the same as nonfertile), just make sure you collect them daily and store them on the counter or in the fridge, and then you'll be fine.

 

[Saveria]

Yes. The egg that is fertilized will not seem any different from any other egg.

Can you eat a newly fertilized egg?

Sure, it's exactly the same as a non fertile egg
