Hi,
eggs- Yes, if they want to.
Fish- No; there is no such thing as an animal-eating vegetarian.
milk- Yes, if they want to.

well there are many different types of vegetarians:

Pescatarians do not eat animal flesh with the exception of fish. Dairy is ok, but not eggs.

Lacto-Ovo Vegetarians do not eat fish or any other animal flesh but do eat eggs and dairy.

Ovo-Vegetarians do eat eggs but no dairy or animal flesh.

Vegans (I am vegan myself) do not eat any animal flesh or animal products and no dairy, eggs or animal product derivatives.

Flexitarian/ Semi-Vegetarians generally eat dairy products and may make exceptions for certain types of meat such as fish.

Hope that helps! Good luck if you are considering vegetarianism/vegan lifestyle. I have never had meat before in my life and I am happy to say that this lifestyle is incredibly easy and healthy!!!

theres different types, vegan (no animal products whatsoever) lacto-vegetarian (dairy is ok) and ovo-vegetarians (eggs are ok)

however most vegetarians are vegetarians for the animals sake. (ever watch real footage from slaughterhouses filmed by PETA?) and even milk cows and chickens are widely abused.

Come on, you really dont think dairy cows and egg chickens spend all day in the field enjoying themselves?

from what i know vegetarians can be of 2 types. 1)by religion 2)by choice.By choice they eat somethings and leave some by their choice and beliefs but by religion like JAIN'S who follow MAHAVIRA and INDIAN religion by origin don't eat EGGS , NO FISH , and don't DRINK MILK AFTER FEW YEARS OF CHILDHOOD ie once child starts to eat food or if at all then after the calf has had its feed what ever left over can be consumed by them IDEOLOGICALLY not to hurt anything that is living

There are different types of vegetarians. Vegans eat no animal products at all. Lacto-vegetarians eat dairy, and ovo-lacto vegetarians eat dairy and egg products. True vegetarians do not consume fish.

This vegetarian doesn't! :-)
LOL. Some do...Most veggies will not eat fish b/c it's an animal. But they will drink milk and eat eggs.
Vegans will not partake in any of the three you mentioned.

I'm a lacto-ovo vegetarian so I dont eat fish but I do consume eggs and milk. There are some vegetarians who eat fish though. Eggs are a controversial topic amongst Hindus who are vegetarian. In India its considered a non-veg item.

pescatarians eat fish, but no meat. Vegetarians have milk and eggs. Vegans consume no animal products, or use products that came from or were tested on animals.

There are different kinds of vegetarians.

Vegans eat absolutely no animal products whatsoever. No fish, eggs, milk, cheese, meat products of any sort.

Lacto-Ovo vegetarians eat milk and egg products.

My father in law followed a vegetarian diet where he didn't eat "anything that had ever had a face". So oysters were in, crab was out.

Then there are "vegetarians" who eat shellfish or fish and even some who eat chicken.
