If it wasn't removed from its natural environment (i.e. mother's body, egg depository, etc) then it would be fish or shellfish right now (assuming it was fertilized.) But once it's out of that environment, it's as viable as an egg in the dairy section.

most commercial roe you get to eat, hsn't been firitlized, so no. However, roe in the wild, would turn into fish, or frogs or otherequatic animals since the females produce eggs and the malesproduce sperm at the same time.

No, unless the fish is a live bearer. Male fish spray the eggs with their sperm after the eggs leave the body of the female. IF the fish is a live bearer(gives birth to live fry) then there is a possiblity that the eggs may be fertilized, but if they are not fully developed then they may not hatch.

Yes, as long as the roe is not prematurely removed from the female's body, it will hatch. Oh, and if it has been fertilized....
