Is it all right to eat chicken eggs even though there is a rooster with them?

There is no nutritional difference between a non fertilized egg and a fertile egg.
You will not see a difference either as the germinal disk is so small it is almost invisible.
Most farms with small flocks have a rooster among the hens and they sell the freshest eggs you will ever eat.
