My beautiful 22 week old pullet Bandit died suddenly yesterday of unknown causes. She was the product of another person's olive egger project -so not certain of her lineage. She was laying beautiful green, not olive, eggs. I have 3 of her most recent. She only laid a total of 6 eggs since she started on 1/4/2012.
Assuming they were fertile eggs (I have a very randy 25 week old White Leghorn rooster)
Would I be able to hatch those eggs - they've been on the kitchen countertop for less then 10 days unturned with the fat end up?
Would the offspring pullets lay white or blue shells?
Would the new offspring inherit the same condition that caused her to die suddenly or is sudden death just a freak thing that happens sometimes?
Maybe I'm just feeling melancholy over her loss - but I keep having a desire to hatch her eggs.
