I am not sure how true this is, but there is an old wives' tale that says something about roosters coming from the pointier eggs and hens from rounder ones.
a chicken need a rooster to fertilize it's sex cell whatever it is A chicken can lay an egg without a rooster but the egg can never be hatched. If the egg is fertilized then the egg is able to hatch.
No, the temperature at which an egg is incubated does not determine the sex of a chicken. The sex of a chicken is determined by its genetics, with males having ZZ chromosomes and females having ZW chromosomes. Temperature can affect egg development and hatch rate, but not the sex of the chick.
For this you have to have a male chicken called a cock and he will fertilise the egg by having sex with the hen
yes and no. The temperature will not change what sex the chick will be, that was determined when the egg was fertilized, however during incubation if the temperature fluctuates to much either up or down the baby female chick eggs which are more sensitive to temp changes might die in the shell, leaving more resilient male chicks to hatch.
Internal fertilization is like animals having sex....the egg is fertilized on the inside. External is when the egg is fertilized on the outside (like when frogs lay eggs and they need to be fertilized before they can hatch).
Because the Hen who laid the egg didn't have sex (no abuse, just the answer to the question) with a Rooster before she laid the egg, so it was not fertilised

The temperature of an egg, will not have any bearing on whether it produces a hen or rooster. The sex of the chicken is determined before the a is laid.

Male and female have sex. Female lays egg(s). Eggs hatch = Chicks

No but egg producers would sure like to figure out how. Gender is determined when the germinal disc is formed high in the ovaries of the hen. There is some indication that a hatch will produce a higher male ratio when slightly warmer conditions exist during incubation. It is also known that the hatch suffers more dead loss.
No males of any kind produce eggs. "Egg" is the name of the female sex cell (gamete). Some male animals will help care for eggs so that they will hatch and be healthy, but no males make or lay eggs.

Birds have sex and then the female lays (usually) several eggs. The parents may take turns incubating the eggs until they hatch. The young are taken care of until old enough to fly on their own. Then they fly away, have sex, and start their own families.
