Can you still eat fertilized chickens eggs?

Of course you can eat fertilized chicken eggs. Why wouldn't you? You can even buy fertilized eggs at some markets. Trader Joe's carries them. Some time ago some people on this forum even bought some fertilized eggs at Trader Joe's and tried to hatch them. Some of them got baby chicks.

I eat fertilized eggs a lot. So do my neighbors and who ever buys my eggs. Not all of my eggs are fertilized (boy that would be a lot of work for my 2 boys) but some are

Yes.
I don;t have a rooster but my mother-in-law has 2 roosters in her flock of 20 or so chickens. Often she finds a fertilized egg. As long as you are collecting daily and storing them at room temp or in the fridge (well below incubation temps) the emryos shouldn't develop. You may get a blood spot (tiny red spot on the yolk) at times, but it cooks right in and nobody knows.
