Yes. Most eggs purchased at local farms or in the organic food section of the grocery store are fertilized. It is almost impossible to tell that an egg has been fertilized unless that egg has been incubated. Eggs are collected and refrigerated within hours of being laid and therefore do not start forming the embryo. There is no difference in taste nor in quality between fertilized and unfertilized eggs.
There are also some cultures (notably in southeast Asia) who eat partially formed eggs, either duck or chicken, and consider it a delicacy. In the Philippines, this is called balut.

∙ 14y agoAbsolutely. Unless incubation takes place you would never know if the egg has been fertilized or not. There is no difference in taste or texture.

Does the Chicken stay in the eggs that you eat?
The egg is not a chicken unless it has been fertilized and incubated.
How do chickens make eggs?
Well..... A female chicken lays eggs and if a male chicken fertilizes it then the egg will turn into a chick, however if the egg is not fertilized it becomes eggs that we eat!!
How baby chicken born?
Baby chickens are born from eggs (fertilized eggs only, not the ones you eat), because they are birds. A baby chicken is called a chick.
Are fertilized chicken eggs good to eat?
Yes, but you should make sure that the fetus has not begun to grow in the egg.
Are unfertlized chicken eggs good to eat?
Yes, of course they are! In fact, ALL the eggs you buy in the grocery store are unfertilized. The only difference between fertilized and non-fertilized eggs is the tiny drop of sperm. It adds an infinitesimal amount of protein. BIG on the downside: fertilized eggs go bad quicker.
Can you eat goose eggs?
Yes, you can eat goose eggs. As with chicken eggs, just make sure you aren't cracking open a fertilized egg.
Is there veins in chicken wings?

Are you supposed to eat duck eggs or let mom hatch?
Many cultures prefer them to chicken eggs. They have a bit stronger flavor, but are quite nutritous. And only fertilized eggs will hatch, anyway.
Is it bad for a hen to try and hatch an egg that is not fertilized?
no that is how people eat eggs. we eat eggs that chickens/hens hatch that aren't fertilized.
How can you tell if it's a chicken egg or a eating egg?
All chicken eggs are eating eggs unless they have been fertilized and incubated. Even then some people eat them and they are call balut. But to answer your question, almost every egg you have eaten is from a chicken since the eggs of other birds are not usually available in stores.
Do birds eggs have to be fertilized to make chicks?
No, not all chicken eggs are fertilized. Most mass-produced eggs from battery farm operations are not fertilized, as the hens live their whole lives without seeing a rooster. Roosters must mate with the female chickens in order for the hens to produce fertilized eggs. No rooster, no fertilization. Hens are able to produce fertilized eggs for 1-2 weeks from one conjugal encounter with a rooster, but it takes a few days for the rooster's sperm to begin fertilizing her eggs.
How do you develop an human eating egg?
The eggs we buy in the supermarket are unfertilized chicken eggs. Upon fertilization, the bird begins to form within the egg. Some cultures do eat the fertilized eggs of fowl with the embryo inside.
