I just got all of my chickens within the last 2 weeks and recently moved them from my garage to their coop and yard. They were laying in the garage so I thought it was strange that they weren't laying at the farmyard. My son climbed up on a pile of hay and found 5 beautiful eggs in a spot I didn't know the chickens could get to! It seems a shame to throw the eggs away but they could have been out there for up to a week. Are they safe to eat or is there a way to test them? I also wonder if there is a possibility of any of the eggs being fertilized because I got the chickens from 3 different places and some were free range with a rooster. I'm thinking I just need to toss them and get over it but I thought I'd ask.
We put a nest box over the little hole they had gotten into so hopefully next time we will find eggs in the nest box!
