A CHICKEN USUALLY STARTS LAYING AT 20 TO 25 WEEKS OF AGE. THE CHICKENS THAT I HAVE, STARTED RIGHT AROUND THAT TIME.
a rooster has to make love to them
Yes. Be careful if they are fertilized and a chicken has lain upon it for an extended period of time.
No, a chicken needs a rooster to fertilize the egg in order for it to develop into a chick. Without the rooster's contribution, the eggs laid by a hen will remain unfertilized and will not hatch into chicks.
a chicken need a rooster to fertilize it's sex cell whatever it is A chicken can lay an egg without a rooster but the egg can never be hatched. If the egg is fertilized then the egg is able to hatch.
No. The egg won't be fertilized and it will be a yolk. But then again, if you want scrambled eggs, then i guess you can have it without the rooster.
A fertilized hen egg is an egg that has been fertilized by a rooster. This means that there is a possibility that the egg contains a developing embryo. If the fertilized eggs are not collected and incubated, they will not hatch and will be indistinguishable from unfertilized eggs when cracked open for consumption.
Not all chicken eggs are fertilized. Any egg that a chicken lays will be unfertilized unless there is a rooster around to fertilize the egg while it is inside the chicken.Chicken eggs are fertilized when a rooster is in with the hens. The rooster will breed with the hens to continute the chicken species. This is why eggs are fertilized. If you do not want your eggs fertilized, all you need to do is pull out the rooster, or roosters if there are more than one. This will cause the chickens to lya unfertilized eggs.When an egg is fertile it means it was in the beginning stage of hosting a baby. Basically, it is an egg from a hen that had previously had sex with a rooster. You probably don't want to think about that before eating them though. They are the most nutritious form of egg to eat.
Only if they are fertilized and incubated. Most eggs are not fertilized and therefore will never become a chick.
No, not all chicken eggs are fertilized. Most mass-produced eggs from battery farm operations are not fertilized, as the hens live their whole lives without seeing a rooster. Roosters must mate with the female chickens in order for the hens to produce fertilized eggs. No rooster, no fertilization. Hens are able to produce fertilized eggs for 1-2 weeks from one conjugal encounter with a rooster, but it takes a few days for the rooster's sperm to begin fertilizing her eggs.
Yes, a rooster is a male chicken.
When a rooster mates with a hen, sperm from the rooster is transferred to the hen's oviduct where it fertilizes the egg. However, hens do not require a rooster to lay eggs, as they will still ovulate and lay infertile eggs on their own.
If eggs are to be incubated for hatch, they must be fertilized. That is where the rooster comes in.
