Fertilised egg?? No rooster..

[Kelseyn]

You have a rooster or I don't know but if I had 3 hens I wouldn't have been looking for an incubator

It was suggested to me to incubate some and see if they hatch?? Which I then said I’m looking into an incubator..

How long have you had your hens for? Rooster sperm can last a few weeks inside the hens body after mating I've heard. So after they mate you can get fertile eggs for a couple weeks apparently

I’ve had them about 18 months.

How fascinating! from Auckland. It's always nice to see another kiwi round here.

Hey roosters are awesome I have a question
The bird in the pic on the left does his tail look like a roosters and does he have the extra flight feathers

Definitely not, a rooster would have long, pointy saddle feathers by now. The tail looks normal for a hen this age.

Any chance someone is buying eggs for you "to keep you happy" did you notice any change in the color of the yolk

This is bizarre! Following to see how this story ends. And welcome to the group!

I wish, but no. Then I’d have answer for it instead. The yolk was super orange and it had a different shade of orange through out it.. almost at a red but not quite

To the OP how many eggs do you get a day? If you get 3 eggs a day then you obviously don’t have a rooster.
