To continue with this fascinating subject, I said that there could be no guarantee that eggs laid by
free range hens had not been Fertilised by roaming roosters who had escaped from, perhaps and more
likely, family chook owners.
To make this test, I believe that there is a process called "candling" where the belt on which the
eggs are lying passes under a light, and if the light detects the presence of a blood spot,
indicating that a rooster has had his wicked way with Chicken Licken or Mrs Henrietta Eggworthy, it,
said egg, is removed: post haste: from the belt!
