You know how sometimes people post things and then immediately regret it? Welllll, this might take a while for the regret to kick in.
The eggs didn't hatch because there was no rooster. The egg owners were just collecting eggs, like you would from the grocery store, and putting them in the incubator. They did not understand why the eggs did not turn into chicks. They didn't for the same reason 99.9999999% of women can't get pregnant without a man involved somehow.

Turkeys are capable of doing this, it is called "Parthenogenesis". They are capable of laying fertile eggs with no male.
"Parthenogenesis occurs in turkeys through doubling of haploid cells, and the rate at which this occurs could be increased by selective breeding.[28] The offspring produced by parthenogenesis were healthy, and as doubled haploids they were homogametic, and consequently all were male."
