I think its the form that everything is in. Bone is a different form of calcium than what is in the yoke, the protine in yoke is more of a pre form of protine than when it is when assembled into different organs, protines, and what not. Now vitamins wouldnt really change much. It is a very interesting concept though, that a day old chick is nothing more than a slowly cooked yoke. Never thought of it like that.

Now they do sell 10 day old chicks as feeders my guess is those are fed a "gut load" diet, maybe not too different than what is fed to production chickens.

Have to admit i did not pay much attention durning poltury production in school, i was more a beef and goat person. Love me some beef!
