Very few people try the experiment, not choosing to risk the eggs ; therefore we are left to conjecture the results of such practice gene- rally. In an individual case, to which Mr.... Trotter refers,t it appears to have had the effect. " The eggs were not taken • Buffon, tome iii. p. 186. f Trotter's "Prize Easay." s 274 DOMESTIC POULTRY.
