Which Egg Is Fertile?When fertile eggs are incubated by either a hen or in an incubator, they grow.

What is needed to make an egg fertile?

Look at the picture below and mark the fertile egg.

How do you know that the egg you have marked is fertile? Explain.

Egg GradingMatch the egg to its grade.

Eggs are graded for quality. Read the description of each grade of egg carefully and thengrade each egg in the box with AA, A, or B.

A grade AA egg stands up tall. The yolk is firm and the area covered by white is small.

A grade A egg has a yolk that is round and tall. The white is a little flatter than a grade AAegg.

A grade B egg spreads out more. The yolk is flattened.

The grade of eggs can change if eggs are not stored correctly or if eggs are kept for a longtime in the refrigerator.
