So I miss the story about the test egg, and how you came upon it. Can you post the link so I can read back on the details?

well i got some ferile eggs from safeway and they were in the fridge...i thought it wouldnt work but my mom said it should so i said why not? well it grew and now its on its last 3 days

i also have 7 silkie eggs on day 12

i only think 3 are good though but im keepin em all in there...

I put an eggland's best egg under my broody today. Maybe I'll have the same luck you are having. Probably not though. What are the chances of a store bought egg being fertile and still surviving the fridge?

You got a furtile egg from Safeway? That's really weird.

Doubt it most of those hens never see a roo in their life also those eggs tend to be at least over a week old when they hit stores.

Did it say on the carton it was fertile? I thought the egg farms didn't ever bother with having roosters around. Karen

I see those in our Hannaford, too. I always have to restrain myself.. I'm dying to try incubating and see if I can hatch one.

One of these days..


Good luck with your little test egg! Is it white or brown?
