一 只 or 一 立 egg ?

[drifter]

Sometimes I can hear PRC using 一 只 egg . But when we are younger chinese teacher teach us for egg we use 一 立 .

 

[Ash007]

They must be uncouth PRCs, 一立， 一个 are acceptable. 一只 refers to an animated thing.

But some Chinese will argue that egg is a animated thing . That's why I also confuse .
