Is this a fertilized egg??

[TickenLady]

Hi all! One of our girls started laying a few days ago. We didn’t think we had any roosters in our flock but this egg looks fertilized to me...not an expert so need some help!

No, the silkie did turn out to be a roo though. He went to a hobby farm

Yeah I'd put up pics of all your chooks and then we can let you know which could be the rooster. Cos that egg looks fertile

Here’s some pics. I have a barred rock, red sexlink, Easter egger and a lavender Orpington (“she” is younger than the rest, hatched mid June. The other three were hatched mid May).

Those are pullets.
How long ago did you have the Silkie, and was he in contact with these birds?
Definitely agree the egg looks fertile.

I do see only pullets. How long ago did you sell your silkie roo?

How long ago did you get rid of the silkie ? All birds pictured are pullets.
