I don't have chicken right now and won't for a while yet be I'm curious and have to ask. I know Alligator eggs will hatch either male or female depending on the thermal degrees inside of the nest. I was wondering if chicken eggs are anything like that? Obvious Alligators and chicken are 2 different species but eggs are eggs aren't they? If this is a stupid question I hope I gave you a good laugh for the day.

I keep the temp 2degrees higher and 2 degrees lower and it didn't make any difference.
