Scrambled Eggs

I buy organic brown eggs from "free-roaming" hens. Often they are "fertilized" with a whole new set of DNA strand in them. I like them because they remind me of the brown eggs I used to get from my free-roaming chickens when I lived back on a farm. I used to have pet chickens as well. Banty hens were my favorite. Some times in the morning after collecting the eggs in the hen house, I'd crack a few eggs to make an omelette and everyonce in a while the fertilized egg would look a little gamey with the umbilical cord already forming and an extra mass of clumpy whachamacallit would be in there too. Gross, but just as delicious. Tell me, am I guilty of murdering an unborn chicken by breaking open the egg? Should we call in PETA?
And what about the fact that I wouldn't be able to have a full grown pet chicken? Did I murder it as well?
Just wondering.....
