It is important to know what is being consumed. When a person eats eggs, they are suppose to eat unfertilized eggs, as a fertilized egg with have some formation of an animal in it.
No. Most eggs sold today are from large egg producing facilities and there are no interactions between hens and roosters. Most of the egg producing hens have never and never will see a rooster. The only time you may get fertilized eggs is if you buy from a local farm and unless you incubate the eggs you would never know you are eating a fertile egg. There is no discernible difference between a fertile and non fertile fresh egg.
Yes, there is really no difference nutritionally between fertile and non-fertile eggs. Unless the egg has been incubated for several days there is no visual difference either. Farm fresh eggs are more often fertile than not. Store bought factory produced eggs are never fertile.
The chicken eggs we eat are unfertilized. Actually some are fertilized. It depends on what type of egg you get. But after they have been refrigerated they will not hatch.

Hens will lay eggs regularly without the necessity for fertilization. The only difference between a fertilized and unfertilized egg is that a fertilized egg has the potential to hatch and become a chick, while the other does not. Several prominent institutions have conducted studies comparing the nutritional values of fertilized eggs to unfertilized eggs. The result was that both kinds of eggs are nutritionally the same.
