They are a browny color , how long will it take them to hatch or for me to no that they are fertilized?

They are fertilized. brown/yellow good, white bad. You have about 3 days from the time the eggs were layed before they hatch. another 2-3 days before they fry move around then another 3 or so days before they swim.
