Why are there no chicks in eggs when you buy them and eat?
That's a great question! Here's the answer:
* Eggs you buy are unfertilized. For a chick to develop, the egg needs to be fertilized by a rooster. The eggs you buy at the store come from hens that haven't been with roosters.
* Eggs are designed for reproduction. The egg's purpose is to house a developing chick if it's fertilized. If not, it's simply a source of nutrients for the hen.
So, the next time you crack open an egg, you're enjoying a nutritious meal, not a tiny bird!
