It this egg fertilized? Didn't think I had a rooster.

I was making eggs this morning and saw a few eggs that looked like they could be fertilized, but I thought I had all hens. Any idea?

I'm not sure, I know some people have had eggs with a bullseye without a rooster.

 

[LoLosChickens78]

Here are all my chickens, any clue who could be a rooster?

It doesn't look fertilized to me.

They’re all hens, it’s probably a false bullseye

I do not think it fertile. but with a dot that big, she could be of age to be fertile.

I don't see any boys in there, not even any I'd want a better photo on. That does look like a bull's eye me, how many of those are you getting?

I'll include a link to an article that talks about parthenogenesis which could explain that, but that is pretty rare.

I found two or three others, two of which I didn't get pictures of, but the spot was bigger and kinda freaked me out, so I didn't eat them. I have a silkie rooster but he is not in the same area. The large hens try to kill my to bantams and my quail. So they live in a separate smaller coop in the large coop.
