We have to distinguish between fertilized and unfertilized eggs to really answer that question. A fertilized egg contains an embryonic chicken which as it develops will have, by the time it hatches, all the bones that an adult chicken has (only smaller, of course). But in an unfertilized egg (the kind sold in grocery stores to be eaten) there are no bones. The shell itself is somewhat bone like, but it is not actually a bone.
