This is genuinely fucking with my head. I get that the eggs are unfertilized, but that both hens can actually speak and are willingly handing over eggs for the humans to eat is just too fucking bizarre for me. The only reason I can rationalize it with chickens is because they are animals and chickens specifically pump out eggs when overfed. But for the egg layer to be sapient and give the unfertilized eggs to another sapient creature to consume is just beyond the pale for me.
