Do eggs always contain chicks ?
The hen lays eggs almost every day, but only those that have been fertilized contain an embryonic chick. The majority of eggs bought in shops are unfertilized eggs and do not contain chicks.
Much to contrary belief, neither fertilized nor unfertilized eggs contain chicks that are meant to be born. To make a chick, a hen has to mate with a rooster. For a chick to be formed inside an egg, the fertilized egg needs to develop into an embryo.
