In Shulchan Oruch Yoreh Deah in Hilchos Bosur B’Cholov it states that eggs are taken out of the category of meat. Eggs are separate from the actual body of the fowl and as such are not considered as meat. If the eggs are not fully formed then they have a quasi aspect of meat and can’t be cooked with milk. However you can drink milk after eating half formed eggs. Eggs are not a meat concept because although the egg will become a bird, at this point the egg is merely the food that the bird embroyo uses to grow. In fact if an egg has a small blood spot it is ossur since the bird has started to grow.
