  1   I,  5 |      viviparous animals, some hatch eggs in their own interior, as
  2   I,  5 |          with others a grub. Of the eggs, some have egg-shells and
  3   I,  5 |      colours within, such as birds’ eggs; others are soft-skinned
  4   I,  5 |           of uniform colour, as the eggs of animals of the shark
  5 III,  1 |           of those ovipara that lay eggs externally, the wombs are
  6 III,  1 |          have inside them a pair of eggs, whereas in reality each
  7 III,  1 |     consists not of one but of many eggs, and this accounts for their
  8 III,  1 |           so thin and fine that the eggs might seem to be outside
  9 III,  1 |          the cleft portion with the eggs is at the top close to the
 10 III,  1 |             as the midriff, and the eggs are engendered here and
 11 III,  1 |           wider space and turn from eggs into young animals. However,
 12 III,  1 |      reaches the midriff, where the eggs are engendered in a row;
 13 III,  1 |      engendered in a row; and these eggs are laid not one by one,
 14 III,  1 |           of the womb, in which the eggs are, is placed near to the
 15  IV,  1 |             inside them a number of eggs, like in appearance to white
 16  IV,  2 |             female has red-coloured eggs, which are adjacent to the
 17  IV,  5 |             are found the so-called eggs, large and edible, in the
 18  IV,  5 |             colour, shells, spines, eggs and all, and that are longer
 19  IV,  5 |           urchins are supplied with eggs, but in some of the species
 20  IV,  5 |             some of the species the eggs are exceedingly small and
 21  IV,  5 |         membrane, are the so-called eggs, identical in number in
 22  IV,  11|          cases found furnished with eggs.~As a general rule, in red-blooded
 23   v,  1 |            wind-eggs in birds. Such eggs, by the way, in birds are
 24   v,  1 |             spontaneously generated eggs, these eggs develop into
 25   v,  1 | spontaneously generated eggs, these eggs develop into living animals;
 26   v,  5 |       spawns, the males swallow the eggs; and the species is continued
 27   v,  7 |             operculum it spawns its eggs and in the same neighbourhood
 28   v,  8 |             laying and hatching her eggs. In our country there are
 29   v,  8 |            The bird lays about five eggs.~
 30   v,  9 |           larus, or gull, lay their eggs on rocks bordering on the
 31   v,  9 |              and it broods over its eggs as birds do in general.
 32   v,  9 |        summer, and lays five or six eggs; from autumn until spring
 33   v,  10|           the circumstance that the eggs do not all reach maturity
 34   v,  10|       animal lays a great number of eggs at a time; and the young
 35   v,  11|         contained a number of small eggs. The ryades or shoal-fishes
 36   v,  12|             the female has laid her eggs, the male comes and discharges
 37   v,  12|        discharges the milt over the eggs, and the eggs thereupon
 38   v,  12|         milt over the eggs, and the eggs thereupon harden. And the
 39   v,  12|            female, after laying her eggs, broods over them, and in
 40   v,  12|      furnished with their so-called eggs in spring-time and in autumn,
 41   v,  12|            animal has the so-called eggs in most abundance in these
 42   v,  12|       urchins are small but full of eggs.~Snails are found by observations
 43   v,  17|           conceives and retains its eggs for about three months,
 44   v,  17|           August; they then lay the eggs into the folds underneath
 45   v,  17|     underneath the belly, and their eggs grow like grubs. This same
 46   v,  17|     smallest. The size of the small eggs is that of a small seed
 47   v,  17|             two intervals devoid of eggs; for it is thus that the
 48   v,  17|            in the act of laying its eggs it seems to bring them towards
 49   v,  17|             and then, squeezing the eggs towards the said gristly
 50   v,  17|             become receptive of the eggs; for the animal lays its
 51   v,  17|             for the animal lays its eggs into these formations, just
 52   v,  17|          just as the sepia lays its eggs among twigs and driftwood.~
 53   v,  17|          and driftwood.~It lays its eggs, then, in this manner, and
 54   v,  17|           outside. And out of these eggs crawfish form in about fifteen
 55   v,  17|          The animal, then, lays its eggs before the middle of September,
 56   v,  17|           that month throws off its eggs in a lump. With the humped
 57   v,  17|        arctus or bear-crab lays its eggs at about the same time as
 58   v,  17|    spring-time, before laying their eggs, they are at their best,
 59   v,  18|            previously observed. The eggs, when the female has laid
 60   v,  18|          Some fifty days later, the eggs burst and the little polypuses
 61   v,  18|             touched they moved. The eggs of the sepia look like big
 62   v,  18|   constitutes the sticky gum. These eggs increase in size; and they
 63   v,  18|           spring-time, and lays its eggs after fifteen days of gestation;
 64   v,  18|             of gestation; after the eggs are laid there comes in
 65   v,  18|      Crustaceans, then, hatch their eggs by brooding over them as
 66   v,  18|            and the like hatch their eggs without stirring from the
 67   v,  18|        times sits brooding over her eggs, and at other times squats
 68   v,  23|           wall of the cell. But the eggs are not deposited in the
 69   v,  23|          moon. And, by the way, the eggs and the grubs never rest
 70   v,  24|          Here the insects lay their eggs, and white grubs are produced
 71   v,  27|            spider, when it lays its eggs, broods over them, and in
 72   v,  27|         them, and in three days the eggs or grubs take definite shape.~
 73   v,  27|        shape.~All spiders lay their eggs in a web; but some spiders
 74   v,  27|          The meadow spider lays its eggs into a web, one half of
 75   v,  27|             parent broods until the eggs are hatched. The phalangia
 76   v,  27|             The phalangia lay their eggs in a sort of strong basket
 77   v,  27|             brood over it until the eggs are hatched. The smooth
 78   v,  28|          ground, and then lay their eggs: and the male, by the way,
 79   v,  28|         tube. The females lay their eggs all in a lump together,
 80   v,  28|             that the entire lump of eggs resembles a honeycomb. After
 81   v,  28|          After they have laid their eggs, the eggs assume the shape
 82   v,  28|           have laid their eggs, the eggs assume the shape of oval
 83   v,  28|            The grasshopper lays its eggs at the close of summer,
 84   v,  28|           at the time of laying the eggs, grubs are engendered in
 85   v,  28|          the fact is they lay their eggs in cracks of the soil. During
 86   v,  28|             During the winter their eggs remain in the ground; and
 87   v,  29|       attelabi or locusts lay their eggs and die in like manner after
 88   v,  29|            after laying them. Their eggs are subject to destruction
 89   v,  30|           the sperm.~They lay their eggs in fallow lands, boring
 90   v,  30|             for the locust lays its eggs in untilled lands, and this
 91   v,  30|          The cicadae also lay their eggs in the canes on which husbandmen
 92   v,  30|         they are full then of white eggs.~If you make a sudden noise
 93   v,  33|            young.~The tortoise lays eggs with a hard shell and of
 94   v,  33|         colours within, like birds’ eggs, and after laying them buries
 95   v,  33|             it then broods over the eggs on the surface of the ground,
 96   v,  33|             ground, and hatches the eggs the next year. The hemys,
 97   v,  33|       leaves the water and lays its eggs. It digs a hole of a casklike
 98   v,  33|            and deposits therein the eggs; after rather less than
 99   v,  33|             thirty days it digs the eggs up again and hatches them
100   v,  33|       sea-turtle lays on the ground eggs just like the eggs of domesticated
101   v,  33|           ground eggs just like the eggs of domesticated birds, buries
102   v,  33|      domesticated birds, buries the eggs in the ground, and broods
103   v,  33|         lays a very great number of eggs, amounting at times to one
104   v,  33|        terrestrial and fluvial, lay eggs on land. The eggs of lizards
105   v,  33|      fluvial, lay eggs on land. The eggs of lizards hatch spontaneously
106   v,  33|    river-crocodile lays a number of eggs, sixty at the most, white
107   v,  34|     externally oviparous, and their eggs are strung on to one another
108   v,  34|          after the dam has laid her eggs in the ground she broods
109   v,  34|          over them, and hatches the eggs in the following year.~
110  VI,  1 |         Birds without exception lay eggs, but the pairing season
111  VI,  1 |             lay a large quantity of eggs before brooding, amounting
112  VI,  1 |           suddenly. Hens, then, lay eggs, as has been stated, at
113  VI,  1 |           pigeon, or by laying many eggs at a sitting, as the barn-door
114  VI,  1 |            of prey; as many as four eggs have been observed in the
115  VI,  1 |          Birds in general lay their eggs in nests, but such as are
116  VI,  1 |             of a tree, and lays its eggs there without making any
117  VI,  2 |          hen-for some hens lay soft eggs. The interior of the egg
118  VI,  2 |             yellow part within.~The eggs of birds that frequent rivers
119  VI,  2 |           land; that is to say, the eggs of waterbirds have comparatively
120  VI,  2 |         yolk and less of the white. Eggs vary in colour according
121  VI,  2 |       according to their kind. Some eggs are white, as those of the
122  VI,  2 |        others are yellowish, as the eggs of marsh birds; in some
123  VI,  2 |            birds; in some cases the eggs are mottled, as the eggs
124  VI,  2 |            eggs are mottled, as the eggs of the guinea-fowl and the
125  VI,  2 |             the pheasant; while the eggs of the kestrel are red,
126  VI,  2 |            are red, like vermilion.~Eggs are not symmetrically shaped
127  VI,  2 |            laying. Long and pointed eggs are female; those that are
128  VI,  2 |           the narrow end, are male. Eggs are hatched by the incubation
129  VI,  2 |        Syracuse, how he used to put eggs into the ground under his
130  VI,  2 |          Instances have occurred of eggs being deposited in warm
131  VI,  2 |          just where the hen has her eggs; and these are entirely
132  VI,  2 |           the same size as ordinary eggs. Such phenomena are regarded
133  VI,  2 |        wind-eggs are the residua of eggs previously begotten from
134  VI,  2 |           and more liquid than true eggs, and are produced in greater
135  VI,  2 |           goose, and the vulpanser. Eggs are hatched under brooding
136  VI,  2 |           hen-bird is brooding, the eggs get addled. Wind-eggs that
137  VI,  2 |     Wind-eggs can turn into fertile eggs, and eggs due to previous
138  VI,  2 |         turn into fertile eggs, and eggs due to previous copulation
139  VI,  2 |         that contains wind-eggs, or eggs begotten of copulation be
140  VI,  2 |         wind-eggs turn into fertile eggs, and the previously impregnated
141  VI,  2 |          the previously impregnated eggs follow the breed of the
142  VI,  2 |    beginning of spring and lay more eggs than the older hens, but
143  VI,  2 |             the older hens, but the eggs of the younger hens are
144  VI,  2 |           one another they lay more eggs under these than under ordinary
145  VI,  2 |             therefrom, but all such eggs are wind-eggs.~
146  VI,  3 |            of birds.~Birds lay some eggs that are unfruitful, even
147  VI,  3 |           that are unfruitful, even eggs that are the result of copulation,
148  VI,  3 |             no life comes from such eggs by incubation; and this
149  VI,  3 |       especially with pigeons.~Twin eggs have two yolks. In some
150  VI,  3 |             two yolks. In some twin eggs a thin partition of white
151  VI,  3 |           each other, but some twin eggs are unprovided with such
152  VI,  3 |           that lay nothing but twin eggs, and in their case the phenomenon
153  VI,  3 |          been known to lay eighteen eggs, and to hatch twins out
154  VI,  4 |            the turtle-dove, lay two eggs at a time; that is to say,
155  VI,  4 |             lays the second pair of eggs when the first pair happens
156  VI,  4 |             occasionally lays three eggs, but it never rears more
157  VI,  4 |        begun laying, keep on having eggs, though in the case of some
158  VI,  4 |         brooded previously over the eggs. In all connected with the
159  VI,  4 |          The hen-pigeon carries her eggs fourteen days; for as many
160  VI,  4 |          the parent birds hatch the eggs; by the end of another fourteen
161  VI,  5 |          seen. The vulture lays two eggs.~(Carnivorous birds in general
162  VI,  6 |              6~The eagle lays three eggs and hatches two of them,
163  VI,  6 |            kite in general lays two eggs, but occasionally rears
164  VI,  6 |             the raven lays only two eggs; it lays a larger number.
165  VI,  6 |       mother birds that lay several eggs often extrude one of their

167  VI,  7 |         nest. Sometimes it lays its eggs in the nest of a smaller
168  VI,  7 |           after first devouring the eggs of this bird; it lays by
169  VI,  7 |           after first devouring the eggs of the pigeon. (It occasionally
170  VI,  8 |           after once sitting on the eggs she continues brooding until
171  VI,  8 |          while sitting quiet on her eggs can provide herself with
172  VI,  9 |           plumage. They hatch their eggs within thirty days or rather
173  VI,  9 |             a year, and lays twelve eggs, or may be a slightly lesser
174  VI,  9 |            she does not lay all the eggs there and then one after
175  VI,  9 |          first time lay about eight eggs. The peahen lays wind-eggs.
176  VI,  9 |           that rear peafowl put the eggs under the barn-door hen,
177  VI,  9 |             the males and lay their eggs and brood in solitude. Only
178  VI,  9 |         brood in solitude. Only two eggs are put under a barn-door
179  VI,  9 |           prevent her going off the eggs and discontinuing the brooding.~
180  VI,  10|            cartilaginous fishes the eggs do not settle close to the

183  VI,  10|           of similar creatures, the eggs pass into one or other of
184  VI,  10|      so-called smooth shark has its eggs in betwixt the wombs like
185  VI,  10|            like the dog-fish; these eggs shift into each of the two
186  VI,  10|            at one and the same time eggs above close to the midriff (

189  VI,  13|           of such fishes is full of eggs, so that in little fishes
190  VI,  13|         seem to be only a couple of eggs there; for in small fishes
191  VI,  13|             With such fish as pair, eggs are the result of copulation,
192  VI,  13|      river-fish, for the minnow has eggs when quite small,-almost,
193  VI,  13|             These fishes shed their eggs little by little, and, as
194  VI,  13|          the water; but such of the eggs as the female deposits on
195  VI,  13|          beds are saved. If all the eggs were preserved, each species
196  VI,  13|             greater number of these eggs so deposited are not productive,
197  VI,  13|             the female has laid her eggs, the male follows and sheds
198  VI,  13|         over them, and from all the eggs so besprinkled young fishes
199  VI,  13|            female has deposited her eggs, the male besprinkles them.
200  VI,  13|    cuttlefish.~Fishes deposit their eggs close in to shore, the goby

209  VI,  14|           milt has mingled with the eggs, the resulting product becomes
210  VI,  14|         young fishes are generated. Eggs touched by the male sperm
211  VI,  15|           been stated, proceed from eggs. However, there are some
