I want to breed my chickens next spring (they aren't old enough yet) but I can never tell which eggs are fertilized and which are not. I'm thinking of not collecting eggs for a couple of months and letting them sit on them to hatch and the ones that won't hatch I'll just chuck, so that I can breed. The only problem is that I lose a lot of eggs. I was wondering if there was a easier way to do this. I also DO NOT want to buy chicks, I just want to hatch them. New things like this are fun for me. I also think it would be fun to let the moms do some of the work. Please help! Thanks!
