How to Tell a Fertile vs INfertile Egg (Pictures)

[JulesChicks]

I just read this entire thread and found it to be extremely educational and fascinating. Thanks so much Speckledhen and everyone for your contributions. Now I can feel confident about what I'm looking at with store bought (occasional bloodspots) and my future homegrown eggs. Great post! Thanks!

Can someone tell me if this is a fertile egg or not?

.it killed me to break it

Can you post another pic where the glare isn't on the white spot?

I haven't read all the posts so this may have been asked already. How long after introducing a new rooster are the eggs fertile or fertilized? I was told two weeks.
