In one minute: Principal causes of cracked eggs | PlusVet Animal Health
The eggshell provides mechanical protection to the content of the egg and acts as a barrier against microbial infections. It should look clean, smooth, homogeneous, and free of cracks. Cracked or broken eggs are prone to microbial contamination, posing a threat to consumer health (table eggs) or having a significantly reduced hatchability (fertile eggs). In general, 3% to 6% of the total eggs laid are discarded due to breakage. Damages to the eggshell can be classified as gross cracks, where both the shell and the shell membrane are cracked, and microcracks, where the shell is broken, but the egg membrane is not damaged.
