An egg conveying apparatus comprising: a first conveying portion configured to convey eggs arranged in "n" longitudinal lines in a longitudinal direction; a second conveying portion configured to receive eggs from the first conveying portion and to convey the eggs in a lateral direction; and a transfer portion interposed between the first conveying portion and the second conveying portion and configured to transfer eggs from the first conveying portion to the second conveying portion, the transfer portion comprising: a pitch converting portion configured to receive "n" eggs corresponding to a single transverse row of eggs that are arranged in the "n" longitudinal lines from the first conveying portion at a first pitch and to convert the first pitch to a second pitch that is smaller than the first pitch; and a speed synchronizing portion configured to receive "n" eggs from the pitch converting portion at the second pitch and to deliver the "n" eggs to the second conveying portion in synchronization with a conveying speed of the second conveying portion, wherein the pitch converting portion comprises "n" first egg receptacles configured to receive "n" eggs in one-to-one correspondence, and the "n" first egg receptacles are configured to repeat a reciprocating movement between a first position in which the first egg receptacles receive eggs at the first pitch and a second position in which the first egg receptacles deliver eggs to the speed synchronizing portion, characterized in that the first egg receptacles are configured to move only in the lateral direction between the first position and the second position. a first conveying portion configured to convey eggs arranged in "n" longitudinal lines in a longitudinal direction; a second conveying portion configured to receive eggs from the first conveying portion and to convey the eggs in a lateral direction; and a transfer portion interposed between the first conveying portion and the second conveying portion and configured to transfer eggs from the first conveying portion to the second conveying portion, the transfer portion comprising: a pitch converting portion configured to receive "n" eggs corresponding to a single transverse row of eggs that are arranged in the "n" longitudinal lines from the first conveying portion at a first pitch and to convert the first pitch to a second pitch that is smaller than the first pitch; and a speed synchronizing portion configured to receive "n" eggs from the pitch converting portion at the second pitch and to deliver the "n" eggs to the second conveying portion in synchronization with a conveying speed of the second conveying portion, a pitch converting portion configured to receive "n" eggs corresponding to a single transverse row of eggs that are arranged in the "n" longitudinal lines from the first conveying portion at a first pitch and to convert the first pitch to a second pitch that is smaller than the first pitch; and a speed synchronizing portion configured to receive "n" eggs from the pitch converting portion at the second pitch and to deliver the "n" eggs to the second conveying portion in synchronization with a conveying speed of the second conveying portion, wherein the pitch converting portion comprises "n" first egg receptacles configured to receive "n" eggs in one-to-one correspondence, and the "n" first egg receptacles are configured to repeat a reciprocating movement between a first position in which the first egg receptacles receive eggs at the first pitch and a second position in which the first egg receptacles deliver eggs to the speed synchronizing portion, characterized in that the first egg receptacles are configured to move only in the lateral direction between the first position and the second position.
