Uh, if you bought them at the store and they’re fertilized then bro something is seriously wrong.

Candling like others have said but also in case you didn’t know, it is safe to eat a fertilised egg. Obviously if the chick is developed it’d be quite unpleasant but in the early stages I’ve heard it tastes the same as unfertilised.

Apparently duck eggs (but sometimes chicken eggs) with a developed embryo is a delicacy in some countries referred to as Balut eggs.

If you care, shouldn’t you check before boiling them?

I usually don’t care but that time while boiling, the egg exploded something that looked like feather , so I had this question I asked , but when I cut it I found it’s a normal egg
