No. The chick is the egg white and it lives off the yolk.

But she hasn’t been around roosters for like 7 months?

Hey @sybonbon have you seen this contest? I saw you had an interesting egg too!

Thanks for the heads up. May the funniest looking egg win! And that's no yolk. Lol

How about my first fairy egg? I thought it was a red grape. Lol

There can only be a chick if there is a fertile egg, which requires a rooster. She can't still be laying fertile eggs after being without a roo for 7 months. What turns into the chick is the Germinal Disc (also a blastoderm if it is fertile, it turns into a embryo with incubation and feeds on the yolk), which is on the outside of the yolk. You can see it, and if it looks like a bullseye its fertile. If its just a little white dot its not.

No. The chick is the egg white and it lives off the yolk.

“The yolk has a small white spot on it called the egg cell or germinal disc. This is the part of the egg from which the baby chick develops.”

That meat spot was a baby chick.

No, it wasn’t.

It’s alright it was just a little mistake.
