Is there a difference between the nutritional value of fertilized and unfertilized eggs?

Hens will lay eggs regularly without the necessity for fertilization. The only difference between a fertilized and unfertilized egg is that a fertilized egg has the potential to hatch and become a chick, while the other does not. Several prominent institutions have conducted studies comparing the nutritional values of fertilized eggs to unfertilized eggs. The result was that both kinds of eggs are nutritionally the same.

How is a fertilized egg produced?

To make unfertelized eggs the chickens are kept separate from the rooster because they don't need to have intercourse to produce eggs. The same applies to humans, women don't need to participate in intercourse to have a period. (P.S. humans release eggs too)
