How do you get non-fertile chicken eggs from the chicken?
You can't get non-fertile chicken eggs from a chicken that's been exposed to a rooster.
Here's why:
* Fertilization happens inside the hen. A rooster doesn't fertilize the egg when he mates with the hen. He deposits sperm that can live inside the hen for several weeks.
* Eggs are always fertilized if a rooster is present. If a hen has been with a rooster, all her eggs will be fertile.
So, how do you get non-fertile eggs?
* Keep the hens separate from roosters. This is the easiest way to ensure your eggs are not fertilized.
* Buy eggs from commercial farms. Most commercial egg farms keep their hens separate from roosters, so the eggs are guaranteed to be non-fertile.
Important Note:
* Non-fertile eggs are perfectly safe to eat.
* Fertile eggs can be eaten as well, but they are more likely to have a blood spot or a white spot, which is a sign of the developing embryo.
