Phosphorus Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 One of the eggs I received in the post as part of the batch my hen is sitting on was slightly crazed so I didn't set it. Opened it up to see if you could tell if it was fertile - can you tell at this point - it hadn't been incubated (although the weather was lovely on the day they arrived ) Does that look like a fertilised egg should look or is that just damage from where the crazing was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I don't think the 'line' is normal but believe that the dot means that it is (or was!) fertile Hopefully this bodes well for those under your broody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
