What is the little wormy white thing inside a chicken egg?
ChalazaeChalazae (singular: chalaza) are strands of egg white that anchor the yolk in place in the center of the thick white. They are neither imperfections nor beginning embryos.

Chalazae do not interfere with the cooking or beating of the white and need not be removed, although some cooks like to strain them from stirred custard."so yea a sperm
What is the white stuff that is inside a chicken called?
The clear white stuff is called albumen and it protects the yolk of the egg. The opaque white stuff (two of them) that is close to the yolk and looks almost like jelly is called chalaza and it is a protein that holds the egg yolk in the center of the albumen. You only see chalaza in fresh eggs as it disappears in stale eggs.

How is the embryo of the bird kept in its place?

What is the function of the chalaza of the egg?
The chalaza in an egg is a rope-like, white "thing" that you might find in a scrambled or fried egg. If you look carefully, you can see it in a raw egg. What is does is it stabilizes or suspends the yolk, so that in a fresh egg the yolk floats in the middle of the albumin (egg white). When candling an egg, one thing you look for is that the yolk of an older egg will be near the shell and definitely visible. In a freshly laid egg, the you see a "shadow" of the yolk, and as you twirl the egg, the chalaza keeps the yolk in the center and away from the shell.
What is the white bit of a egg called?

What will happen if the cords in the egg broke?
What you are referring to is chalaza. Ropey strands of egg white which anchor the yolk in place, in the center of the thick white (albumen). They are neither imperfections, beginning embryos nor are they rooster sperm. If by chance one or both of these cords breaks then the chances of the embryo inside the egg actually forming and surviving to hatch would be in question. The forming chick inside the shell must have room to form and if the chalaza did not hold it up it would drop the embryo to the bottom of the shell and possibly cause deformities.
