does anyone know where I can get a fertile egg around Santa rosa beach?
She's 11 and has been bugging me to do this project for longer than I care to admit. Any help or input from anyone who's done this is appreciated.

I personally don't know where to get a fertilized egg but the problem I see here is you will end up with a chicken! Then, what do you do? :idontno:

Not sure where to get a fertilized egg, but maybe you could do a project with Alaqua or a wildlife refuge - they sometimes get nests/babies to rescue.

You could ask at the farmer market on Saturdays at Seaside.

surely there's someone on SOWAL that has chickens, and'll fess up. The time you spend with your daughter will be time that even money won't buy you later....priceless.

Our school up in GA used to do this, only we'd dye the eggs with food coloring, so the chicks would hatch with multi-colored feathers.

My brother and I used to have a purple baby chicken that we'd affectionately dubbed, "Frickassee"... :wub:

Good luck with the project! What a great opportunity for her! :clap:
