Sorry, but I think this is a hoax. To me that egg looked infertile anyway. I don't believe you could keep them free of bacterial contamination- i didn't see any evidence of sterile technique. Crack and egg into a glass , cover it with plastic wrap and have it develop into a chick? pppffftt. Nah.

Ha ha ha ha
Well I will agree to DISAGREE with ya Robbie - LOL
They had a big incubator Full of yolks in this new plastic they developed.
"to me" the egg developement looked too real to be a hoax.

BUT it's good either way - some will dream about what might "one day" be the norm(*o*)
ps - not sure it is a given that only a Sterile egg will result in an chick?

Too bad if it is a hoax. looked like fun. But also very inefficient. They had 11 in glass and 4 in shell. Only one chick running around afterwards...

Standard hollywood trick- photo of egg in glass, then closeup of developing egg (from elsewhere), audience puts 2 and 2 together in their minds that the developing chick was actually in the glass.

but it wasn't.
Eggs are perfect media for reproducing bacteria. It takes some bacteria 20 minutes to double, a chick takes 21 days to grow....... nah........ sorry....
