Ethical pentapod egg production (lemmy.world)

I want to automate pentapod eggs without having to kill any surplus when they expire. Just to avoid being the bad guys as much as possible... How do you do that?

I thought about shipping any surplus eggs to a far away place and letting them hatch there, but I'm worried it will become too crowded.

Another idea is to throttle the production, but it can't go any lower than one egg per 15 minutes.

How do you do it? Any other ideas?

I don't see why we should be ethical, we are trying to escape the solar system and they are trying to kill us which actively prevents our goal.

It's like polar bears they will absolutely kill you if your in their area, food is food after all.... But most people like to leave them be, don't get in their way.
