Re: Guess what we've got?


I hope so too, knowing my luck I'll probably buy some fertile eggs that have not actually been fertilised.

Re: Guess what we've got?


Isn't there something called "candling" to see whether an egg is fertile or not???

Re: Guess what we've got?


This isn't her, but one of the same breed which I just found on the internet.

Yes, I've heard of candling, but I think they would have to be so far gone before you can check the eggs.... maybe I'll go and read about it.
