There are people on BYC who have hatched egg's from Trader Joes and they were refrigerated. I currently have 12 fertile Trader Joes egg's in my bator. You have to let them set out to room tempature before putting them in the bator.

Just an early quitter and the stuff has broken down... no need to worry about bacteria unless the egg stinks... if it smells rotten, and trust me yiu WILL notice it and smell it, then that is one with bacteria and needs to be removed immediately...
Actually, it can be tough sometimes, but hatchibg refrigerated eggs is done quite frequently... there's even a whole thread about it... something like hatching TJ chickens, can't remember exact name but it's all about hatching fertile eggs from a US store called Trader Joe's... and ronott1 hatches those every year if they're available for the Easter HatchAlong...

Very interesting.... I didn't know that. I can't imagine though that if they are in there a for a few days though that there would be many developing but hey, you learn something new everyday
