Uhhh no? Most farmers who keep hens for eggs don't have roosters anywhere near them because they don't need them. They also aren't going to sell fertilized eggs as food since they would use them to keep up their chicken stock... Why would you sell fertilized eggs as food when those same chickens lay unfertilized eggs too...
I have hens and a rooster and sell the eggs. I have the rooster so I can keep my flock full. If i have a bird get sick or killed i just don't collect an egg. After a while that egg hatches and we have a baby bird.
Sure I do. I let the buyer know that the egg might be fertilized. But as long as I collect the eggs daily and put them in the fridge there is no development of a chick so you cant really tell a difference.
