Why EE Eggs Didn't Develop?

[aussieheelr]

Maybe you need another roo to make sure they're all getting covered? It looked like you had quite a few hens and only 1 roo by your signature line, he could be overstretched.

But if they look fertile, doesn't that mean he's getting the job done? I've been checking all the eggs we eat, and at least 95% of them are fertile.

I don't AI my birds, though I know there are sites online that tell you how to do it. Used to have one bookmarked, but apparently, it isn't there anymore.

Lollli, if you are positive that you are seeing a bullseye and not just the white spot on the yolk, then I have no clue. I had one Brahma hen whose eggs were definitely fertilized (very distinct bullseye), but when she was with my blue Orp roo, they never would develop. Between myself and others, we must have incubated 50 of her eggs. Nothing. However, with my BR rooster, one egg did develop, so her chemistry and the blue roo's chemistry didn't mesh. I seriously doubt that is the case with your rooster and ALL the EEs.
