There is no nutritional difference between fertilized and unfertilized eggs.
I generally wait about 10 -15 days for the chick to start developing in the egg before eating it. It tastes yummy (raw or cooked) and I think the programme Fear Factor took up the idea.
They do if you give them ample time to grow and develop in the shell. Once they hatch and develop even more, growing up, they become one of the tastiest birds on the planet. By that point, they're not even eggs anymore!
yes
If you buy your eggs fresh, directly from the farm, you are very likely eating fertilized eggs. There is no way for you to tell the difference unless you ask the farmer if he keeps a rooster. There is no nutritional difference nor is there a visible difference unless incubation had begun.
Both are very nutritious. Neither is better nutritionally than the other. The germinal disc is so small as to be negligible as a quantitative nutrient addition. Given the same standards of freshness and size, both would be just as healthy for you and you would not see a difference when cracked in a pan side by side.
No, it either is or it isn't.
Now, if you missed a word, and meant to ask if there is a difference between the two, then, yes. A fertilized egg can, under a very narrow set of circumstances (under a hen or in an incubator for 21 days, NOT left out on the counter), develop into a chick and hatch.

What is the difference between fertilized and embryonated eggs?
Fertilized eggs are eggs that have been fertilized by sperm, while embryonated eggs are fertilized eggs that have developed into embryos. In embryonated eggs, the embryo has started to grow and develop, while fertilized eggs are simply eggs that have been successfully fertilized.
Is there a difference between the nutritional value of fertilized and unfertilized eggs?
Hens will lay eggs regularly without the necessity for fertilization. The only difference between a fertilized and unfertilized egg is that a fertilized egg has the potential to hatch and become a chick, while the other does not. Several prominent institutions have conducted studies comparing the nutritional values of fertilized eggs to unfertilized eggs. The result was that both kinds of eggs are nutritionally the same.
Are unfertlized chicken eggs good to eat?
Yes, of course they are! In fact, ALL the eggs you buy in the grocery store are unfertilized. The only difference between fertilized and non-fertilized eggs is the tiny drop of sperm. It adds an infinitesimal amount of protein. BIG on the downside: fertilized eggs go bad quicker.
Is there any difference in the nutritional value of fertilized eggs?
No.
Do fertilized eggs taste the same as non fertilized eggs?
Yes - the only difference in a very few cells amongst many, many millions.
Is there any difference in the nutrition value of unfirtilized and firtilized eggs?
The difference is so minute that there is essentially no difference. The "rumor" that fertilized eggs are lower in cholesterol than unfertilized eggs is untrue.
What is the difference between a fertilized chick egg and a non fertilized chick egg?
Absolutely nothing if you are not incubating the fertilized ones. There is no visible difference, no nutritional difference and no taste difference.
What is the difference between internal and external fertilisation in animals?
Internal fertilization is like animals having sex....the egg is fertilized on the inside. External is when the egg is fertilized on the outside (like when frogs lay eggs and they need to be fertilized before they can hatch).
What is the difference between hen egg and starfish egg?
Hen eggs are fertilized internally by a male rooster before being laid by the hen, while starfish eggs are typically released into the water and fertilized externally by sperm released by male starfish. Additionally, hen eggs have a hard shell for protection, while starfish eggs are usually small and jelly-like.
Is there any different in the nutritional value of the fertilized egg and unfertilized eggs?
There is no nutritional difference between a fertilized and an unfertilized egg. People prefer to eat unfertilized commercial layer eggs, so they don't feel like they are eating the next generation. Also a fertilized egg does not have as long of a shelf life as the unfertilized one does.
What is the Difference between a male and females reproductive system?
Depends on the animal, but in general male produces sperm, female produces eggs, and MAY hold fertilized eggs until they grow (but not always)
Do you eat fertilized or unfertilized eggs?
It is important to know what is being consumed. When a person eats eggs, they are suppose to eat unfertilized eggs, as a fertilized egg with have some formation of an animal in it.No. Most eggs sold today are from large egg producing facilities and there are no interactions between hens and roosters. Most of the egg producing hens have never and never will see a rooster. The only time you may get fertilized eggs is if you buy from a local farm and unless you incubate the eggs you would never know you are eating a fertile egg. There is no discernible difference between a fertile and non fertile fresh egg.Yes, there is really no difference nutritionally between fertile and non-fertile eggs. Unless the egg has been incubated for several days there is no visual difference either. Farm fresh eggs are more often fertile than not. Store bought factory produced eggs are never fertile.The chicken eggs we eat are unfertilized. Actually some are fertilized. It depends on what type of egg you get. But after they have been refrigerated they will not hatch.
