Your question does not make total sense. If stored correctly, eggs will hatch after storage for 3 weeks from being laid. depending on species, eggs are fertilised 1 day to a few weeks before being laid.

Will eggs hatch in an incubator if they were 20 days old?
It is unlikely you will get any to hatch. 7 to 10 days is about maximum storage pre-incubation. After 10 days, even in ideal storage, the hatch success rate is reduced by about 10% per day.
How long does it take a hen to be pregnant before she lays the egg?
Hens lay approximately 5 eggs per 7 day week. Sperm from a rooster is stored in the hen's oviduct for up to 10 days, so after just a single successful mating many fertilized eggs can be laid. Depending on when the hen's last egg was laid, the next egg laid after the hen was mated will most likely be fertile. A rooster is necessary to have fertilized eggs, but a hen will lay eggs even if no rooster is present. Incubation time for fertilized eggs is 21 days. Days 1-18 require an internal temperature of 99.5 F and a humidity of 50-60%. Days 18-21 require an internal temp of 99.5 and a humidity of 70-80%. Eggs must be turned 3 times a day during incubation to ensure that the embryo doesn't stick to the inside of the shell, but DO NOT turn during the last three days as the chicks are trying to orient themselves for hatching.
How long does a chick stay a chick?
A fertilized egg takes 21 days from the day incubation starts to hatch. A broody hen may take a few days to gather enough eggs but the day she starts to set on the eggs it usually take a full 21 days. Constant temperature and humidity must be maintained by either the hen or the artificial incubator.
How long can someone survive in the desert eating only twice a day?
They can survive indefinitely as long as the food is nutritious and they have plenty of water.

What is the incubation phase of a disease Give 2 specific examples of the lengths of incubation phases for different diseases?
The incubation phase of a disease is the time period that elapses between exposure to a disease causative agent or a pathogenic organism and when the first symptoms occur, for example incubation period of Cellulitis is 1 day, and that of Influenza is 2 days.
When does the beak form in the chicken egg?
the beak starts to form on the second day of incubation
What day in the cycle is an egg most likely to be fertilized?
14
How long can an egg survive without being incubated?
Under optimum conditions a fertilized egg can be kept for up to 10 days with some chance of a viable hatch. The sooner used after lay the better but viability drops with warm conditions and low humidity. After seven days storage, 70% viability is reached and a further 10% per day thereafter. Eggs older than 10 days have little or no chance of incubation.
How soon can I candle my chicken eggs?
Candling can be done at any time, although day 8 onwards is usually when the embryo is more easily identified. Day 3 of incubation (usually pale shelled eggs). Day 5/6 of incubation (usually dark shelled eggs). Between day 8 - 12 of incubation (embryo more easily identified). 3 days prior to hatching.
