How many steps does it take to get an egg?

Answer 1

1. The male bird, for example a cock has to mate with a fertile female bird, for example a hen.

2. The sperms of the cock fertilize the egg.

Note: There is no requirement for there to be a male for a female hen to lay eggs. There does need to be a male if the egg is to be fertile.

3. The egg grows within the hen.

4. The shell forms over the egg.

5. The hen then sits to lay the egg.

6. The egg comes out of the hens vagina.

7. You get to the hens hideout and hold the warm egg. You got the egg!

That is 7 steps. You can further elaborate them to get more steps.
