Are you old enough to remember these?
I’m just waiting for a farmer or Agricultural Scientist to produce a square egg. I’ve already seen square melons and tomatoes. The advantage there is these two vegs can be more efficiently packed and trucked away with less probable damage. I suppose a square egg is pretty much impossible, unless the soft beginning form is removed from the bird and placed in a little square shaped mold. Not very likely to occur. What would be the point other than novelty?
A square egg would be pretty hard on a lady bird. But you can have square eggs to eat, if you want: and it is a nice novelty:
The square melons grown in Japan are only used for displays. They don’t taste as good as regular melons. (My daughter learned this on her cultural exchange trip last summer).

There, figured it out and it cost 10 minutes of my life.
