Can you get a baby chick by heating a egg in a incubator?

An plan supper market egg is the kind of egg I am talking about.

1. No, because plain supermarket eggs haven't been fertilized.
2. no. You would need to buy a special egg from a breeder or such like, as supermarket eggs have not been fertilised, so could never hatch into a chick
3. try it and let me knw. maybe we could open a chicken farm.
4. depends.................................
5. no, it has to be fertilized by the rooster before it comes out of the chicken.
6. no. it must be a fresh fertilised egg - supermarket eggs are dead, unfertilised eggs .
7. Store bought eggs not work. Many are not even fertilized. But, when they get cold they no good for incubation. If, you know someone with chickens get a fresh laid egg to use. When we were young for Extra Science Credit we would get a fertile egg and carry it around in our shirt pocket for 21 days and it will hatch, if, you take care of it (Not always, but, very often).
8. I don't know about incubators, but my mother once " hatched " a few eggs whose mother died, by putting these eggs which had been under the mother for I don't remember how many days already. And she, my own mother, did it. She got several lovely little baby chicks.
9. No, because the eggs they sell at the supermarket for people to eat are unfertilized eggs, and eggs need to be fertilized with, well, rooster sperm in order to produce a chick. The hens who lay the eggs that are intended for people to eat are kept away from the roosters so their eggs stay unfertilized.
10. might have a bake chick JK JK>. no i dont think you can because it has to be one that is fertilized .... go to a store that sells baby chicks and stuff and ask them for the proper egg//
