I have crestie eggs!!
I've been wondering for the longest if my girly had eggs in her belly, and tonight she laid 2 perfectly white round eggs.

I'm completely ecstatic!!!

How do I know they are fertile? Is there any way for sure of telling??

Oh man. I'm flying.

"How do I know they are fertile? Is there any way for sure of telling"
well, that may be tough if you've never seen fertile and infertile eggs. infertile eggs are typically more yellow in color, and have more of a scaley texture to them. fertile ones will be a bright chalky white with a smooth shell.
the way i will usually tell is take the egg length wise between my thumb and pointer finger and squeeze it a bit, infertile ones will usually be squishy, and fertile ones will be much harder.
this will usually only work the first few weeks after the egg has been laid because the egg will start to absorb moisture and become sort of squishy anyways.
if there's any chance i think it is fertile, i incubate it. it will start molding within 2-3 weeks if it is infertile.

Thank you.
They are both milky white, perfectly round and smooth, and have a bit of hardness to them.

I'm so excited.

sound like some winners, have you read up on incubating mediums? i use a sandwich sized gladware container with a few holes poked in the top, and a 1:1 ratio of vermiculite to water by weight. the first 6-8 eggs i had laid i drown due to too much moisture, and spraying the eggs directly ( in other words, don't spray the eggs directly ! ). i usually wait until the medium starts to crack/separate or pull away from the edge of the container before adding more water to it.
let me know if you have any questions on that.
