Has anyone had a whiteish mass in their egg before? I looked online and some people said it’s intestinal lining some said ovary parts. Not sure, but it looks too big to be the white strandy stuff.

Makes sense, but what is it? Do we just… Let it go and carry on? Nothing to see here? Lol

What else you gunna do?
You can see if an egg is growing into a chicken in future by shining a bright light through it in a dark room/box. You will be able to see the veins growing, or else just a blank yolk. There are pictorial guides on tinternet.
Well I don’t have a rooster… Can an egg become spontaneously fertilized?
You killed Chicken Jesus
Edit: sorry I see this is 4mo old… I just came across the community…
Yes, it’s called parthenogenesis. It’s pretty rare in larger animals (tho fish, insects, and reptiles/amphibians use it much more successfully) but it’s been observed in turkeys, at a rate of about 4%, and up to 15% in some strains of chickens, tho not heavily studied, and usually not actually fertile (as in they never fully develop).
Here’s a thing with more info on that if you’d like to learn more :)
