Are chicken eggs in the grocery store alive?

Asked by stump (3855points) April 15th, 2010

I know a lot of fruits and vegetables are alive when you buy them. You can plant them or put them in water and they will grow. And a fertilized egg is alive, of course, because it hatches into a chicken. But is an unfertilized egg alive? And if not, when do they die?
