Comment on Artificial egg hatched 26 healthy chickensparent

Comments

It's been a while since high school biology class, and I can't ask my sister right now, but I don't think humans are born in eggs. What does an artificial egg hatching chickens have to do with cloning humans?

Arguably humans are born from large, soft-shelled, ambulatory eggs.

ewww eggs with legs

Technically speaking, we could engineer it in a way where humans are born from eggs. It would just have to be a very big egg and would also have to continue growing in an incubator after hatching much like chickens rather than the standard womb senario.

... probably just easier to grow babies in a tube
