So, my girls assured us they were going into the neighbors to check the egg laying spot in the woods over there- turns out they were not! agh... honestly. So, no I have 40 eggs- about 11 days worth (from what I can tell as I have one EEer and I got 11 of her eggs).
So- what to do- I candled them- I about 35 looks like the yolk is floating and no sings of growths (babies). The others the yolk were not moving. So- I am going to put those back, to keep them from hiding again.
I did the float test with the others and about half went sideways- but not straight up- the rest rested firmly on the bottom of the bowl. None floated midway or all the way to the top- all touched the bottom.
Should I just toss them or boil them?
