What will happen if an egg is broken inside a hen?
It's impossible for an egg to be broken *inside* a hen. Here's why:
* Egg formation: Eggs are formed in the hen's oviduct, not inside her body cavity. The egg is carefully constructed with various layers (yolk, white, shell membranes, shell) as it travels through the oviduct.
* Shell development: The hard shell of the egg is the final layer formed in the oviduct. This shell protects the developing chick and prevents the egg from breaking prematurely.
* Laying the egg: Once the egg is fully formed, it is laid outside the hen's body.
What could happen if an egg breaks *outside* the hen?
* The hen might eat it: Hens are naturally inclined to eat broken eggs.
* The egg could spoil: Broken eggs are more susceptible to bacteria and will quickly spoil if not refrigerated.
* It could attract other animals: Broken eggs can attract insects, rodents, and other animals.
