Omg. Do they sell both in the store?

Grocery stores sell unfertilized eggs although every once in awhile one gets through.

The sort of bloody ones?
Ugh, they make me gag.

It'd be nice if there would be things we both could eat not two separate meals each time but although I'm not a big fan of pork or meat in general I do eat chicken and fish, which she does not. She does eat eggs though, don't those come from chickens?

Yes, but what came first the chicken or the egg? Maybe for a vegan it is the egg...

Went to Trader Joe's and scored 6 meals for her which I hope she likes

Fertilized eggs are not any different from unfertili9zed ones.  In order for a chick to be created from that egg it has to be both fertilized and left under momma to be incubated.  The process of taking the egg out from under momma and putting it in a fridge stops that process before it can even start.  So no no chicks can come from the eggs gathered everyday like virtually all eggs sold today. 

Although the vast majority of eggs sold in the supermarket are created without a rooster anyway.

That spot you see sometimes actually has nothing to do with the egg or possible chick anyway.  It is about about the hen and her ovulation.  The light shining thing is supposed to find those now.  I will say I haven't seen one in a egg in years so they are probably right.

I used to buy eggs from a girl who raised chickens. She had roosters also. Curious (and showing my lack of farm animal knowledge, lol), I asked her if the eggs were fertilized, and she told me most likely they were. Besides the super orange yolks, they looked no different from the factory eggs sold in stores.

I have no farm knowledge and my GF raises chickens and she explained the process. She said they aren't fertilized because there aren't roosters on the property.

Did someone mention chickens? 


If there is a rooster running with the hens, they're fertilized.  It's not like you'd be able to tell the difference anyhow.   We take a dozen out of the fridge and put them in the incubator and 21 days later, cute little peepers.
