    Eggs are fertilized. BUT???

    Hello guys my eggs are fertilized and I was expecting to maybe have 6 or 7 new chickens but they just keep laying eggs so now I have about 23 fertilized eggs. Am I doing something wrong or is that just normal. How do I keep from having so many fertilized eggs? And what do I do with them? Thank you.
