Inexperience at spotting the fertile "bullseye".

Hi everybody, I sure this has been asked a million times but I am really bad at spotting the so called fertile "bullseye". Please have a look at this egg and let me know what you think? All the images are the same egg.

It looks like a fertile egg to me.

Thanks. My gut feeling was that it's fertile but I keep doubting myself!

The "bullseye" appears with age. Fresh eggs just have the white dot.

I think it is more matter of proper lighting than the egg's age. Every day I crack a few eggs for my dog into her bowl outside and straight from the coop, and I can see distinct bulls eye on them much easily than in the OP pictures

That doesn't look like a to me. If it's definitely fertile it would show the right from when the egg was laid.

It just looks like a white dot, not a bullseye.

Looks infertile to me.

I'm fine with people not hatching fertile eggs. The size of the germinal disc pictured above indicates it's fertile. You hardly notice the white dot in an unfertilized egg- less than half that size. The process of enlarged GD to concentric ring to expanding concentric ring takes time.

I stand corrected as to what I see on our fresh fertile eggs and whether it should be called bull eye - I see very large white circle instead of less distinct slightly larger circle, but I never seen a dark ring around that white dot - could it only apply for eggs stared at room temps for too long?

The OP pictures is what I see but with much better lighting/contrast.
