This is what a fertile egg looks like!
| Breeders can usually look into a nest of eggs and tell which are fertile and which are not by the outward glow and color of the eggs. In this nest, the bluish white eggs are alive. The four orange-ish white eggs are infertile. The eggs do not give these outward clues until they are somewhat developed. This time period is going to differ from species to species. |
