Hatching Grocery store eggs attempt

[JadeFarms]

Sorry I kind of skipped through the pages. Any development?

Not yet I had to put some new ones in so hopefully they’re fertile.

Yes it is, nobody ever realized what it is I found this skull in my neighbors pasture, I actually found 3. She’s an a$$hole so I used the skull to bring out her Rebel personality. Ngl she looks great by the skull though, brings out her true colors (inside and out).

Im going to hopefully say that the skull isn’t from those neighbors if you know what I mean

Many feed have marigold/extract in them.

If you don't know, don't post

I do too.
Have a bunch of them....might be good to start a thread.

There’s going to be parts of every thread question that we all don’t understand. For me that’s how incubators work but I still know how to do everything else with choosing eggs!

Usually grocery store eggs are not fertile. I thought in the past if a store sold fertile eggs, it had to be on the carton.

Do they still sell these?

I don't think they do anymore. The last time I went to a Trader Joe's there weren't any fertile eggs in the case.

I've never heard of this! Grocery store eggs are usually not fertile and have also been refrigerated (which would kill any fertility if there was any), and they are weeks old already. Even those marked "fertile" have been in the fridge. How would anyone hatch them?

They do hatch apparently. I did hatch one. There are many threads here on BYC of people experiencing hatching fertilized grocery store eggs. Many people have had success with Trader Joe’s fertilized eggs. Yes the fertility is reduced but it is not impossible.

If you hadn’t put them in yet you could have cracked one to look for the Bullseye (don’t know if it’s correct spelling) that’s what I did.

I will do that when we make some food.
