Usually aquatic animals lay their eggs externally because the water acts as medium for the sperm to travel in. In humans semen is the medium for sperm to travel in which why fertilization is internal. Also if the amount of young produced is greater than 150 fertilization is usually external.

They could not fly with full sized chicks in their bodies. Think of a bird with an egg in it's stomach. Now think of it flying. It could neither fit, or fly-the bird would be immobile, without anyway to get food or protect form predators.

What fishes lay eggs?

Almost all fish lay eggs. Fertilisation takes place outside the mother's body, and the eggs are generally left alone by the adult fish after that.... among this group are salmon, goldfish, cichlids, tuna, and eels. Some other fish retain the eggs inside the mother. The developing eggs are fed from the yolk, and not from the mother as in mammals. The mothers then give birth to live young..... horn sharks and skates. There are some few species which have a set-up such as mammals with the mother directly supplying nutrients to the young.... guppies, angel sharks, and coelacanths.
