    Fertilization rates

    I have a D’uccle rooster and 10 standard hens. I never see him mount the hens, but do think he still could be? He used to try, but I don’t know if he still does. I have never had a standard-bantam cross, but I know they’re possible. My hens range from a small Starlight Green Egger to a Buff...

    Is this egg fertile? (Yolk photo)

    I’ll be in total shock if so- I would never think that my frizzles could get pregnant with all those feathers blocking their vent.

    My rooster isn't doing it right.

    My rooster has sex with the hens like he just got out of prison. But I have yet to see any blood in the eggs showing fertilization. My rooster is 6 months old and fully grown. Is he just never going to get it or are the eggs fertilized and I'm just not seeing it?
