A nine-year-old boy from Rotherham reportedly hatched a duckling from an egg bought at Morrisons. The unusual outcome has attracted attention because supermarket eggs are normally sold for eating rather than incubation.

The article text was unavailable beyond its title, so further details such as when this happened, how the egg was incubated and Morrisons’ response could not be verified. The title identifies the boy’s age, location and the supermarket involved.
