Settie Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Hi, I was wondering how long fertile eggs last for before you can't hatch them any more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raina Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I've read 7 days, But i could be wrong. Someoe should be along pretty soon to let you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Fertility decreases as time passes but it's also dependent on other factors too, how the eggs are stored, what temperature they're at, shell quality and they'd need to be turned just as incubated eggs are. I've read of three week old eggs being hatched successfully but ideally they'd be less than ten days old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I've read that up to 7 days is ideal and after day 10 the the chances of them hatching decrease by a certain % a day until they are a month old when it gets to zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
