Ok so kiwi was in her nest box for around an hour I heard a tap and ignored it thinking she was scratching or chewing I've shone a torch in the box and smack in the middle of the concave a tiny perfect white egg I run around the house screaming in excitement can anyone tell by color if its fertile or not here's a picture postimg.org/image/lesct83i3/ I'm so glad 3 months of conditioning has paid off I just hope to God they're fertile |

Thanks guys she's in and out of the nest box today she wasn't in it after laying the egg yesterday I'm expecting another egg tomorrow afternoon but Friday or Saturday seems more realistic

Some hens start the incubation from second and some even from third egg, so fingers crossed for you The hen will however keep rotating the egg meanwhile. So there shouldn't be any disturbance for her at all. |

She's been in the nest box all of last night and only came out once today got a feeling its not fertile he actually mated and got he's wing over yesterday and should I say pumping away and got off then detached so hopefully next few are fertile I'm expecting the 1st and second not to hatch
