Inside the egg there are
cords at the ends. Does that mean that it’s fertilized?
Are they the umbilical cords of a developing chick? These two are actually a type of albumen, or egg white, called the chalazae. They anchor the yolk and keep it centered within the white. As the egg is formed, the yolk and albumen rotate as they travel through the oviduct, and the chalazae become twisted. They are not the beginning of a chick ­ even an unfertilized egg contains the chalazae.
