Hi there,
I am planning to sell some fertile eggs for consumption, any idea how to prevent the embryo from developing? Anyone has experience in this field?
I've experimented by putting fresh eggs in the fridge for a few days at around 59F or 15C and then set them at room temperature for about 3 days. But the eggs were still showing white spot on the yolk (the white area got larger).
Is there a temperature point where the cold can kill the embryo and prevent it from developing afterwards even when in room temperature?
Or is there any better way?
The reason i want to refrigerate the eggs is because the farm is pretty far from the city where i want to sell the eggs. So I want to collect the eggs first and keep them fresh as long as possible. But I don't want the eggs to continue developing after my customers buy them.
