@@CalvinSzeMagic Fool Us is also an ad vehicle for magicians, first and foremost. The real reason people go on the show has nothing to do with P&T directly, because both the person(s) on stage and P&T know that the magician(s) are primarily trying to get their act on TV. Outside of casino shows and magic specific venues, there aren't too many places where it is financially viable to get hired for a major show. The tricks that might actually fool P&T are often not the ones that are showy and draw an audience, which is the main point of the show.

Ya, I watched it frame at a time and you can definitely see his right hand disappear under the bowl while throwing something.. but.. it's hard to see how he's got enough room to palm two real eggs (and presumably one fake squishy one). But, it's possible he actually slights the two real eggs one at a time just before he cracks em open. In other words, 3 fake eggs on the table, he palms one real egg in his hand as he picks up one of the 3 fake squishy ones, cracks the real one, discards shell and first squishy one, while he palms the 2nd real one, picks up 2nd squishy one, cracks real.. discards shell and 2nd squishy, and then picks up last fake one to start the chicken trick, which he pretty clearly loads from the back edge of the table.
