If every egg became a chicken, we'd have HUGE problems.

Unless, maybe, we ate them.

Well the same reason turtles lay like 30 eggs. The likelihood of the hatchlings making it to the ocean and living their life out is low. It’s called evolution. Over thousands of years turtles bodies taught themselves to produce more. Same with chickens as in the wild chickens are very popular amongst predators
