I have eggs set to hatch on Sunday.
I got rid of one of my roosters about 5 weeks ago and have since had my ladies with a new rooster. Both roosters have actively swooned the ladies, but obviously my newer rooster for the last several weeks (he was raised in the pen so just took over once the first rooster left).
Anyone know what the odds are that the eggs hatching on Sunday were fertilized from the first rooster vs the second? Or is it just a crap shoot? It’s my understanding that hens can hold sperm for quite a while but curious if new overpowers held.
