OT: FG, in aricultural terms they call that "candling". I was an "Aggie" at Penn State. I have some funny stories about some of the lab work we did with chickens. Part of our lab work included artificially inseminating hens. Boy, that rooster we used was REALLY MEAN. Guess I can't blame him considering what we put him through. SH

It may not be quite that easy, but it shouldn't be too tough either. I don't know how many components they use, or how readily available they may be. There's also the question of molding the housing, etc.

I also question whether they can afford to invest all $1.5M in production. They have lots of operating expenses to cover as well. Either way, I'm glad the hens finally laid some eggs!
