Not if you use emu eggs.

No, an egg is usually a unfertilized embrio. (Unsure if that's the right term) my point is that the eggs we eat will not become chickens.

"Embryo" still implies fertilization - in casual use, it's a broad term, but you wouldn't use it of an unfertilized egg cell.

I don't think most people would think of the egg itself as a chicken even if fertilized. The zygote inside the egg becomes the chicken, not the egg itself.
