No. Only the fertilized eggs hatch. Eggs bought at the grocery store are not fertile and will never hatch. Even eggs that have been fertilized on the farm will only hatch if conditions are perfect and either set under a broody hen or artificially incubated. 21 days at 100.5 degrees F with a humidity of 50% or better are the ideal conditions for hatching.
No When the bird goes broody she will set a Golf ball. Hens do not know if all the eggs they sit on are fertile. After the first chicks emerge though she will usually kick out unhatched eggs about day 3.
She goes what we call..."broody"
She will sit on the eggs using her own body heat and humidity to create idea conditions for the fertilized eggs to develop. Once she has a large enough clutch of eggs...she will steal eggs from other nests. She will stop moving off the nest for anything more than a quick (5 minutes or less) drink,snack or to defecate. She will stay on those eggs (and be quite protective) for 21 days and then she will keep the chicks with her until they are about a month old.
Yes they do. Adult female chickens (hens) lay eggs.
Yes a chicken does lay eggs
your kinda dumb
Chickens eggs are it's periods :)
Candling means to hold the egg up to a light and see if there is a chicken in the egg and what stage the chicken is in its growing process. It isn't essential for the chicken to hatch, you can just do it if you want to make sure there is a chicken in the egg.
It is usually the chicks that do hatch that deal with this problem, they will push the egg out of the nest.
It's hatch, and about 30 days.
You do not need a cock to get an egg from a chicken. If you want to have fertilized eggs that will hatch into chicks there has to be a cock.
what do you mean by "what are fertilized"?? its an egg that is going to hatch because the male "Chicken" mated with a female Chicken a male chicken is not called a chicken i just told you that so you would better understand
if the egg is cold the egg is dead and you will hear peeping when it is going to hatch
It depends, do you want the egg for food or are you going to let the chicken try to hatch chicks?
The chicken egg will likely hatch first. Quail eggs hatch in 21 to 23 days. Chicken eggs hatch in 21.
No, there is no way to tell what the gender of the chicken will be prior to hatch. If this were at all possible the hatcheries would certainly pay good money for the technology since male chickens are not wanted by egg producers and considered wastage by hatcheries who only raise layers.
hatch
No because they take the egg away from the chicken before it can be in the proper conditions to hatch.
Incubators can be used to hatch chicken eggs.
The Chicken!!!! If it was the Egg who sat on the Egg for it to hatch?? Nobody so... God made the Chicken FIRST!
It tacks around about 21 days for a chicken to hatch

yes
After twenty-one days after the hen has laid the egg that the roster has fertilized the egg will hatch.
