Trader Joe’s shopper ruffles feather after hatching fertilized eggs

This may make you chicken out of buying eggs.

A content creator incubated fertilized eggs purchased from Trader Joe’s and hatched baby chicks, alarming regular shoppers at the chain grocer.

According to the TikTokker @thecaliforniahome, a case of one dozen fertile eggs bought 24 days ago from the market eventually hatched after just three weeks in an incubator.

Now, the family has eight baby chickens.

“No egg shortage here!” she quipped.

But some viewers couldn’t find the humor in it, while others said they were off to buy incubators to test this out for themselves.

“Now I can’t eat eggs,” lamented one person.

“WHY are they selling fertilized eggs,” decried another in the comments. “I’ve been eating these all week.”

“Hey so this is crazy,” chided someone else.

“Stop, I’m literally never going to eat eggs again,” one user said.

While it may ruffle some feathers to buy or eat fertilized eggs from the grocery store, the vendor and educational site Backyard Chicken Coops says they are completely safe to consume.

“There are no adverse effects from eating a fertilized egg, nor is there any taste difference. You can prepare and serve fertilized eggs just as you would unfertilized ones,” their blog reads.

Fertile eggs are eggs that are laid by hens that have been in contact with a rooster, according to Delish, which also reported that foodies shouldn’t fear that they’ll find an embryo in their omelette.
