I saw @Ron-Ran's profile post today and wondered:
Imagine if humans were like chickens and we laid eggs on a monthly basis and only fertilized eggs go on to hatch. Unfertilized eggs would basically be like chicken eggs in the sense that they would never hatch or grow into anything.
Clearly, it would be absurd to save/fertilize every egg because that would be like twelve babies per year which is really ridiculous.
This raises the question of what you would do with your unfertilized eggs. Would you bury them? Throw them in the compost? Feed them to your cat? I am curious what you would do.
