A. A tooth on the bird’s beak pecks at the egg.
B. The mother lies on the egg for 30 days.
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

When a baby bird is fully formed inside the egg, it uses a tooth at the end of its beak to crack the egg. This egg tooth disappears after the bird emerges or hatches.

On the other hand, a mother bird does lie on her nest for a period of time but only to keep the eggs warm. The number of days doesn’t necessarily determine when the babies will hatch.
