according to me, eggs are pure non vegetarian. the reason is, it has the potential to give life to a living body. so it is non veg only. there are some eggs which will not hatch. some says that these type of eggs are vegetarian. but it is not true. because, these type of eggs are artifically made by making some changes to the original egg or chicken. they also came form the original egg which has the capability to produce an living entity. so all eggs are non vegetarian. veg people will not consume eggs.

I think there are different types of vegetarians and different reasons why they chose to be vegs. Those who support ethical treatment of animals do not eat meat and poultry products at all. I am a veg too, and i chose to be like this for a healthy way of living; I do eat eggs to for the protein i get from them.

It depends on how strict you want to be about it. A true vegan does not eat eggs, as far as I know, but I also know vegetarians who do eat eggs. I think vegatarianism is something that requires your own personal definition as to what you're comfortable consuming.
