    That’s only a chicken to the state of Alabama if it is fertilized.

    There is something that tickles me about calling the egg aisle the Alabama orphanage though (stolen from a post the other day)

      If anyone needs me I’ll be wanking it in the egg aisle

      If you look at the center of the yolk, there is a white spot. No it’s not cum. But it does look like this particular egg was fertilized.

      Source: I have a rooster in my flock and about 99% of all our eggs are fertilized. It makes no difference for eating the eggs. But if I incubate them or let the hens do it, they will hatch after 21 days

        Commercial eggs aren’t fertilized. Most backyard chicken eggs aren’t fertilized. It’s mostly homestead farmer types with roosters around their hens that have fertilized eggs. And that white spot doesn’t mean anything.

      A shocking amount of people do seem to think all chicken eggs could turn into chicks/are fertilized. On more than one occasion I’ve explained that your run-of-the mill carton of eggs at the grocery store is just chicken menstruation, not viable fertilized eggs.
