You could look for the bullseye on any eggs that you crack open.

Here's a thread with photo of fertile egg: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/383449/infertile-fertile-egg-yolk-photo

A fresh that day egg will have the white spot, a few days old gets the 'bullseye'. As your making breakfest check out your yolks for fertility, if all your hens are.
