the other day we noticed one of our 2 finches laid 6 eggs. we thought they were both male and dont know if the eggs are fertilized. we dont know exactly when they were laid, so i looked up how to candle the eggs. we noticed 1 side of the egg is an orange color, the other half is white. it wasnt in the middle of the egg like i had expected. we've had them 8 months and ive never had birds before so i dont know what to expect.

we're keeping an eye on them to see what happens, but based on opinion, do you think thats a sign they're fertilized or unfertilized? here's a pic of the 2 birds and the eggs if it helps: http://www.flickr.com/photos/52177400@N04/5308458009/
