Fertile Eggs

Fertile Eggs is a Golden Pupa loot Item that causes Chicken and Turkey eggs to sometimes hatch.

General Description
Fertile Eggs is an Item that can only be found in the form of Golden Pupa loot. Upon being picked up, any Chicken and Turkey eggs harvested by the player have a roughly 8% chance to hatch, giving the player another Chicken or Turkey. When a Chicken or Turkey hatches, a "BKAW!" message will appear above the egg accompanied by a puff of feathers and either the Chicken or Turkey spawning. When an egg hatches, the player still receives Cashews from it at the end of the day, as if it was harvested as normal. There is a limit to how many Chickens and Turkeys the player can have and the item will no longer have any effect after that point.

Comparison
There are no other items in the game that can actively generate new Farm Animals for the player, making Fertile Eggs unique in that regard. If taken early enough and supplemented with a few Chickens and Turkeys, the player will not have to worry about cutting Weeds very often for the majority of the run. That being said, it is recommended to try and avoid Weed cutting items such as Weed Wacker and Herbicide if the player has Fertile Eggs, as they will become useless as the number of Chickens and Turkeys the player has increases. This Item can also provide a decent way of earning some extra Cashews. Fertile Eggs also provides extra utility when combined with items like Chicken Caliochory, Avian Placenta, Spring Chicken, and other friend upgrades.
