split flock 3 weeks ago for pure blood .how long until eggs will be breed specific for hatching

I would say you're probably okay now, but just to be absolutely safe, you could wait a few more days, up to a four weeks. It'd be very, very rare for you to get mixes after that.

I've actually heard somewhere that their rooster died, and months later they were still getting fertile eggs... Has anyone else heard this?

I don't know about months later, but I did hear of someone who got a mixed breed after two months of separation. That is definitely the exception, not the rule; a very rare occurence.
