I'll weigh in on this.

The picture in question that sparked this addition can be found on Log 67, at the very bottom. The Japanese text is a little hard to decipher.

(たまご, tamago) is written in hiragana. It means "egg"

The word beside it, which is meant to be read first, is hard to decipher.

(ゆ _ _ だ, Yu-(blank)-(blank)-da). Deep Sea Prisoner wrote the two middle characters rather awkwardly. I cannot tell if it's hiragana or katakana, but Google Translate's camera function spits out (き, ki) and (さ, sa) for these characters. So the text reads as "Yukisada's egg", it seems.

Personally, I can see what you mean. I don't agree that there's that much evidence, considering there's a lot of logic defiance in DSP's series such as: It's a little bit of a strain to say that he's transexual, considering the four above have been designated with genders and DSP is known for breaking logic and science. The argument also emphasizes the coat pattern of Yukisada to an exaggerated degree.
 * Male(Satanick) and male(Ivlis) breeding (Licorice)
 * Female(Reficul) and female(Sin) breeding (Mors)
 * Asexual reproduction(Ivlis) (Makes considerably more sense than the two above. Poemi and Adauchi)

The citation in question does state that males are 'virtually pure white' but it goes on to defy itself by showing images of male and female snowy owls, where the male snowy owl pictured clearly has some degree of speckling, though not as densely as the pictured female. Yukisada does indeed have speckling, but he has an amount that isn't uncommon with male snowy owls. If he were a female snowy owl, there'd likely be more. Another point made is that his clothes are dark - though this point is fairly irrelevant, given the fact that there's plenty of characters who wear clothes that do not match that of their species coloration.

The text itself accompanied with the picture, while labelling the egg as Yukisada's, has a flexible meaning too. While it can be interpreted as Yukisada having laid the egg, it can also be interpreted as the egg being Yukisada's possession. But, the nature of the picture does suggest Yukisada may have laid the egg, based on his expression of dismay.

However, there are many examples of fan speculation as trivia. The Kurotsuno/Sullivan/Kcalb connection. Before Minami was confirmed as the child of Wadanohara and Samekichi, there was also speculation. A  Bystander weighed in upon a discussion about this trivia two months ago - he decided that it would remain. So long as it is phrased properly, well written, and clearly stated to be fan speculation, it can and will remain.
