Best Answer

how do the bacteria get into eggs? There are two ways this might happen:

1) Chicken poop gets on the shell of the egg. The bacteria pass through the pores and proliferate inside the egg.

2) An industrial egg-laying hen whose ovaries are contaminated with salmonella bacteria passes the bacteria along in the egg-formation process.

Is it safe to eat eggs?

House eggs are chicken eggs put into a refrigerator AS SOON as they are laid, to stop the growing chicken from developing. Unrefrigerated eggs can have little lumps and chicken parts. Uncooked eggs CAN carry things like salmonella. But, "I often consume raw eggs as a way of making sure I get high quality protein and fats into my diet. The risk of salmonella infection is usually only present in traditionally raised commercial hens. If one purchases ones eggs from healthy chickens, the risk of infection is dramatically reduced. It's important to note that only sick chickens lay salmonella-contaminated eggs. If you purchase high quality, cage-free, organically fed, chicken eggs, the risks are dramatically reduced."- By healingdaily As said I don't know if it is true but as said High Quality chicken eggs are not hazardous.
