But you are correct. Eggs are scarce here also. Last week I gave out 22 dozen from my hens to family and friends.That sounds totally fun to try though! What a cool experience!
Some of the videos I've been looking at people are using store bought eggs also, and getting hatch rates. (They are supposed to be infertile. So it does have a higher fail rate than fertile eggs.) But I would try this pretty soon if it weren't for the fact that due to Covid19 you can't even buy eggs in the stores in my area. Its also ridiculous how many things you can't buy right now.
Right now we're a pretty good area for still being unaffected by the virus. And yet when you go to Walmart you can't buy ANY canned goods, no dairy products even no milk, no eggs, etc. All dry goods are gone also.
And everyone is saying its the hoarders fault but actually neglect to count the rich people are hoarding also, while the rich people say its the 'commoners'. And then there's the reduced food rates out there with the previous years crop failures too.
Oops went off on a tangent.
Anyway I just meant to comment on these egg experiments.
I think nature is more forgiving than people believe. I have seen some strange things in my life.
Just stay safe.
