The growth hormone that triggers the growth of feathers in most common chickens is called biatenophase. It is not present in unfertilized chicken eggs. Unless the egg is fertilized and does not hatch than this is not possible.

What does a firtelized egg becomes 1a fruit 2a seed 3a leaf?
Here's a way to help you remember this: all eggs are the same, even plant eggs. Think about a chicken egg, like the ones you cook for breakfast. The egg is inside a shell, right? The plant egg is inside a shell too, only sometimes the shell is soft and tasty and called a fruit. Plant eggs grow into seeds, which then grow into new plants, just like a chicken egg would hatch into a baby chicken if a hen sits on it and keeps it warm. Leaves and stems are just parts of the plant, and not part of sexual reproduction - like the chicken's feathers and beak.
