Eggs are not part of all vegetarian diets, but only of ovo-vegetarian or ovo-lacto vegetarian diets. It is considered that a non-fertilized egg has no life in it.
Some religious vegetarians, such as the Buddhists, Jains, Hindus and Sikhs, do not consider eggs vegetarian.
In conventional egg production--
Just hatched male chicks are killed, either by being gassed or being thrown into a mincer.
'Spent' hens are sent to slaughter. So killing is involved in commercial mass egg production.
