No. An egg has to be fertilized by male (the ****). The eggs we get at the supermarket are not.

Doubt it, I dont think it would be fertilised. You see you need a male chicken thats a Rooster to do that.

The male Chicken name was blanked!!!!

Roosters have nothing to do with egg-laying. Hens lay eggs no matter what. (When they are 6 months or older) Roosters do play a part in baby chicks though. If a hen doesn't mate with a rooster then the egg will just be an egg, and could never possibly be a baby chick. If a rooster mates with the hen, the egg the hen lays can be incubated or sat on, and it will hatch. Only when a rooster mates with a hen is there a baby chick in the egg the hen lays.

Thought that was the case but just checking. Thats a shame :)

Same as women produce eggs every months but you don�t get a baby out of it unless it is fertilised
