Infertile Eggs Preferred and Roosters Barred in Laying Pens
United States Department of Agriculture specialists estimate forty five million dollars in annual losses from improper egg handling. Infertile eggs result when hens are kept away from male birds for about fourteen days, eliminating the need for fertilization. Roosters are disposed of after the hatching season to ensure infertile eggs for market use. Fertile eggs spoil quickly in hot weather and should be produced only during the breeding season.
