If so, that's what I found a minute ago when I broke open a barred rock egg laid today.
Does that mean these eggs are capable of hatching a chick?
Thanks!
Thanks for the pic Cynthia. I want to make sure I see the white spot/ring. In the pic above, there appears to be a face in the yolk..like the man in the moon. Is the spot you refer to the 'nose' on the face I'm seeing?
Thanks!

I have one 10-11 month old RIR rooster who has been mixed with 40+ hens of various breeds.
