Think of the last egg you ate. It came from a hen that hatched from an egg itself. Describe the process that needed to occur from the hen’s egg to the egg you ate. Think about processes in the hen and also in the hatchery.

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: When fertilized eggs are laid, they’re usually artificially incubated at a temperature that simulates a hen sitting on it. Fertilized eggs may be kept in a cool environment first to stall their development so several eggs can be incubated and hatched around the same time.
