Bob's Henhouse : Quote: Just for the record, purely for informational purposes, this looks like less than 75% Oh, yes, I didn't expect a 75% hatch! But still cheaper than buying Leghorn chicks at the feed store. And a wonderful eggsperiment. I tried a second dozen and only got ONE chick...

Mine are most likely white Leghorns. And, SassyKat, there is a belief that fertile eggs are better for you than non-fertile eggs. Trader Joe's is NOT selling them for anything else but eating purposes.
