Hens (female chicken) have the ability to lay the same number of eggs whether or not a rooster is present, but the presence of a rooster is necessary for fertilising the eggs in order for them to develop into baby chicks.
Both fertile and infertile chicken eggs are equally suitable and safe for consumption. The key distinction between them lies in the presence or absence of sperm within the egg.
The primary distinction between fertile and infertile eggs is determined by the presence or absence of male chicken sperm. Infertile eggs are not intended for hatching as they lack the sperm of a male rooster, while fertile eggs contain the necessary sperm for potential hatching.
