My first ever fertile egg......I think.....

[farnorth]

I got an EE rooster on sunday (first rooster ever). He's rather shy and I don't think most of the ladies have accepted him yet. But I did see him do the deed with my sex link hen. I gave it 2 days and then checked her egg this morning and I believe it is fertile but just wanted to confirm with the eggsperts here



.....am I right ?

sorry for the poor pic my camera would not focus on it .

I'm far from an expert but I see what you are looking at and I think you are right. It looks fertile to me. Good luck

How about this one ? it also has a tiny red vein branching out.....but the egg was just laid in the last hour....Ive been stalking the hens so I could identify whose eggs are furtile and who isn't.

That one looks fertile as well.

YAY !!

I have another broody and hope to have a few to set under her by Saturday.

I assume I can stop checking the eggs of these particular 2 hens and save their eggs for a couple days.

That's correct!
