In Jainism, eating chicken eggs is generally not advised. Both major Jain traditions (Digambar and Śvetāmbara) discourage eggs because they involve potential life and can entail harm to living beings, which goes against the principle of ahimsa (non-violence). Many Jains also avoid eggs to prevent accidental intake of life forms.

If you follow a particular Jain lineage or community, you may want to check with your local guru or community guidelines for any specific allowances, but the mainstream practice is to refrain from eggs.
