No rooster fertile eggs?

[AltonaAcres]

Do you have neighbors with male chickens or a stray rooster that's been hanging around????

I think a camera is a great idea!!!

How crazy! I had a hen laying fertile eggs when I didn’t have a rooster to do the job. But it was from my hen that had escaped a few times and hung out with my guinea fowl. So one of my guinea males must have done the deed.

No clue what might be happening, but following.
I second (or third, or fourth?) incubation.

 

[Ihavesomechickens]

I 4/5th (?) incubation.

 

[AltonaAcres]

I 6th incubation

I dunno if it's just one hen laying these I think it is because theres never many in a couple dozen. There are zero roosters around me and these chickens never leave the fenced backyard. I'm in a subdivision. I can sit in my living room and watch them and never see any duck on chicken or chicken on chicken anything. All I ever see is the chickens chase and bully the magpie ducks.

I was reading about some animals that reproduce without a male but that's just weird. Could one of my hens have ovaries and testes? I noticed these eggs about a month ago but was hoping I was just confused. I've hatched tons of quail and chickens before and knew to look for the bullseye in eggs before incubation. I dunno what's going on theres no roosters around me and all these birds are confined to the back yard.

Hatch ‘Em! Hatch ‘Em! Hatch ‘Em! Be a part of a scientific oddity & breakthrough and let us follow the process! Puulleezzzzz?!?!

I also have chickens laying eggs with said bullseye and no rooster..... I thought it was just a sign of extremely fresh eggs
