Does my hens eggs look fertile?

[won023]

Really? Why? I always thought the bullseye meant they were fertile.

An infertile egg will have a small white spot on it, like the eggs pictured.
This is a fertile egg. The blastoderm is larger, and the center is less distinct.View attachment 1227874

that’s what I’m looking for I guess!

And sorry for bugging but how do you produce such orange /golden looking eggs what food would help?

Grass! I let my flock free range, so they get lots of good greens. Chickens that only have access to feed produce the yellow, pale yolks.

Thanks! Mine are free range but not much greens atm as it’s winter we give them layers pellets worms and bean sprouts as treats! As that yolk of yours looks reli good!

I agree with @junebuggena! I've heard marigold supplement will help darken the yolks.

I've heard of sprinkling feed with cajun pepper.

Dark leafy greens will have the same effect.
