Chickens. First What kind of eggs you are referring to. Bcz there are many kind of eggs ........

Eggshells evolved with first reptiles and some acquatic creatures, and then birds; the animals form them within their bodies in order to protect the growing embryo until it is sufficiently mature to expel the egg and allow it to hatch. Some reptiles and pretty well all birds continue to incubate (keep warm) the egg once it leaves their bodies, in order to keep the embryo alive until it's ready to hatch.

Birds' eggs are usually hard and rigid, though with varying degrees of porosity and brittleness. Reptile eggs can be soft, depending on the reptile. Where I live we have a lot of small skinks (soft shells) and geckos (hard shells). The skink eggs look and feel like little white, slightly oval, styrofoam beads from bean bags, while the gecko eggs are round, greyish and hard, like little porcelain balls, very similar in appearance, in fact, to tiny computer-mouse balls.
