An ostrich egg can be compressed quite a bit. A chicken egg, not so much. It also depends on whether you put the pressure on the long axis or across the shorter one. There are a lot of variables involved here. Just one would be the shell thickness of a pair of eggs that are identical in size.

How much pressure does it take to break an egg?

It is not so much as how much pressure as where the pressure is applied. If you keep the egg upright and try to apply pressure at the top and bottom, the egg won't break as easily as much as when you apply it in the middle. The shape of the egg gives greater tensile strength to the ends but the middle is comparitively fragile.

If you had a fresh egg a hard boiled egg and a hollow egg with no hole in the end. Is there any difference in the stress's they could take?

The difference is that the hard boiled egg can take more pressure. The pressure inside of the egg is pushing outwards so that when you try to crush the egg the pressure is going against you.
