Should I Mark The Eggs?

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi,

 

My hen Blue layed her first egg yesterday and will soon be laying another one. I have seen posts about marking the eggs and was wondering if that is something I should do. If so, what should I use to mark it with...(pencil, pen or marker)? Thank you.

a water base non toxic marker will work, I think a pencil mark will get lost after a while (rubed off from moving)

 

They are marked so later with five of them clustered together you can tell which one laied first and if it is over due for hatching.

You don't have to, it will not stop the parents from doing what is needed :hap:
