Also that’s an uneven ratio of drakes to hens...if they are together most of the time they could really hurt or even kill the one hen. Usually a good ratio for healthy fertility is about 4 females for every 1 drake

I have 2 drakes and they are on my girl constantly. I did crack the first two eggs she laid, the shell was super hard and I did notice in the eggs there was a white dot, if that means anything?
how do I check the eggs for fertility? I have a candler but I thought it was too soon to see anything?!

If you get another egg from here, I would suggest that you crack it open, and look for a bullseye type appearance.



If you see it's fertile, you can go ahead and try to hatch if you wan't.

A white dot means it’s infertile. A white dot with a circle around it means it’s fertile

Oh okay, thank you! It was a pretty good size dot but I can’t remember seeing a dot in a circle since it was last Friday.

I have 7 eggs right now, should I crack one that was from Saturday’s lay?

 

[Corbdee]

Ok

But don’t give up hope! Now that they are laying eggs you should get some truly fertile ones soon.

If I crack one and take a pic can you take a peak at it?
