I have been chatting with our southern neighbours (USA) and discussing hatching chilled eggs. Now, many American fanciers to whom I have spoken say that you can hatch chilled eggs, even eggs that have partially frozen, granted that they have not cracked!
Now I tend to scorn these warm southerners ( not to their faces of course ). Do they really realize how cold it gets up here and how frozen eggs can get? However, being somewhat open minded and realizing that I actually do not know everything, I wonder how frozen an egg can actually be before it becomes infertile.
Now there is a thread asking who is hatching. What have you discovered when trying to hatch chilled eggs? Care to give it a try and report results? I am curious.
