No. The egg yolk is fertilized before the yolk and albumin are joined and well before the shell is formed. The oocyte (yolk) is produced during ovulation. This is released into the oviduct where it is fertilized by a sperm from the sperm sac previously deposited by the rooster. The yolk continues down the oviduct fertile or not and is surrounded the vitaline membrane, then by albumin and then shell membrane and finally the calcite that hardens into the actual shell. This takes about 24 hours.

What is the difference between hen egg and starfish egg?
The difference is simply the animal inside. Hen eggs produce chickens if they are fertilized, and starfish eggs produce starfish. Also, starfish eggs do not have a hard shell - they are somewhat gelatinous.
Is the shell of hens egg as brittle as the shell of duck or goose egg?
The shell of a hen's egg is typically thinner and more brittle compared to the shells of duck or goose eggs. Duck and goose eggs have thicker and harder shells to provide protection for the larger eggs they lay.

What is a hen's egg a cell or a group of cell?

What is the size of egg to get it fertilized?
There is no size requirements, the egg is fertilized inside the hen before the shell surrounds it on its way through the oviduct.
How does a hen's egg hatch?
When an egg is fertilized, and it is incubated (whether by the hen sitting on it, or being kept in a warm box or special chamber), the baby chicken grows inside the shell, and when it is all grown as far as it can grow in the shell, it breaks the shell from the inside, with its beak, and thus, it hatches.
What born the chicken?
Chicken are not really born. Unlike mammals, chickens are hatched from the egg laid by the hen or female chicken. The hen lays a fertilized egg in a nest and if that egg is incubated for 21 days a chick will emerge from the shell.
What is a fertillised hen egg?
A fertilized egg is an egg that is fertilized - in short terms, it can be incubated and a chick will hatch from it after incubation.
Are all hen eggs in hard shells fertilized eggs?
NO- the vast majority of the commercial eggs are infertile- the hen never sees a rooster. Fertilization of the egg happend BEFORE the shell membranes and shell are added. Fertilization is not needed to form a shell.
What is a fertilized hen egg?
A fertilized hen egg is an egg that has been fertilized by a rooster. This means that there is a possibility that the egg contains a developing embryo. If the fertilized eggs are not collected and incubated, they will not hatch and will be indistinguishable from unfertilized eggs when cracked open for consumption.
how is a chicken egg fertilised?
A chicken egg is fertilized when a rooster mates with a hen, transferring sperm to the hen's oviduct where the egg is formed. The sperm fertilizes the ovum (egg cell) within the oviduct, resulting in the formation of a zygote. The zygote then develops into an embryo within the egg as it travels down the oviduct and is eventually laid by the hen.
Will a hen sit on an egg if it has not been fertilized?
yes
What is the difference between hen egg and starfish egg?
