Thread formerly known as Hatch day is today

Oh my. That really does look fertile. BUT, ducks and chickens cannot... um.. do it. Their anatomy is different. Are you SURE that crowing hen is a hen?

Do you see any white stuff anywhere on the yolk?

And once again stupid questions from me woohooo!
Is it really possible for a duck to fertilize a chickens eggs?
I'm sure both my chickens are hens, despite the one crowing(she was laying regularly until she went broody, then she quit and a week later the chicken started laying, their eggs are different enough I'm sure about this).
My duck is still laying and I'm guessing her eggs are fertile to.
The chicken egg I opened had th nice pretty bulls eye.
If it really is a fertile egg my kid wants to stick it in the incubator.
There are no other poultry in the neighborhood, and no roos that I've heard.
The dog won't tolerate even a crow or squirrel in the yard, not sure what she would do if a rooster showed up.
I could be losing my mind also
My kid wants to put one in the incubator and hope a chimera hatches.
Even with the glare it's really visible.

 
Thanks for letting us know.

JazminesZoo still has no power. She is using every little bit of gasoline left to power her incubator. It could be days until she gets her internet back up.

Her power line pole in front of her house split and fell, luckily not hitting her house or cars. She thought it would be nice to let everyone know she is still alive. She hasn't forgot about all of you! Please pray for my BFF and all of the people without power up north. Thank you!

MY EGGS ARE HERE!!!!

I'm letting them warm up before I open them.

Julie, how should I put them in the bator? Do you think I should put them in a carton for a week with the little side down?

ETA: An egg carton, IN the Bator..

x2, I'm pretty confused on this. I say incubate it and see what you get.

Are they ducks or chickens? Check the air cells and put them on their side if they are ducks and air cells ok. I'm starting to angle mine farther and farther towards being on their sides. The ones on their sides that had good air cells seem to be growing faster than the propped ones. Don't know if that's because they are on their sides or because they have good air cells though.
Your choc chooks right? Keep them up. Didn't you buy silver appleyards too? Too many eggs, I can't keep anything straight, lol.
