What is the difference btwn the eggs we eat and the eggs that chicken's hatch?!


Question: pls explain


Answers: pls explain

The eggs we eat are harvested and then refrigerated, this stops the fetus developemnt, whereas the eggs that are hatched are either incubated by the hen or artificial heat i.e heat lamps which allows for continuing fetus growth. My first job was at a chicken farm lol!

the eggs we eat aren't fertilized. the eggs that hatch have been fertilized.

The eggs that chickens hatch has been fertilized, so that they can hatch out into chicks.

The eggs we eat haven't been fertilized by a rooster. Some eggs are labeled and sold as "fertile", assuring that the chickens were healthy enough to produce viable eggs, eggs that could hatch if they were fertilized. That tells me that some other eggs aren't fertile but sterile.

WELL OF COURSE THE EGGS WE EAT ARE FROM CHICKENS THAT ARE HEALTHY THERE NOT SICK NOR HAVE A DISEASE IN ANYWAY,IF YOU WERE TO HAVE CHICKENS AND EAT THERE EGGS THERE IS A CHANCE YOU MIGHT GET SICK AND THE EGGS WE EAT ARE FREEZED SO THAT CHICKEN WONT HATCH . hOPE IT HELPS =)

Not that much, if you live on a farm and have a rooster in with the chickens. The eggs can be fertilized----or not. It really doesn't make any difference.

I disagree with most answers. We eat fertilized and unfertilized eggs. Ever crack an egg and have a "white glob" attached to the yoke? That's fertilized folks, just didn't get the chance to grow and hatch.

Only difference is that some of the chicks got to go through the gestation process and some got wisked away.

The eggs that we eat have not been formed into a chick yet. And the ones that hatch are the ones that have been incubated.
