e. hatching of an egg.
Lots of eggs end up getting eaten. For that matter, most human zygotes pass out of the body without attaching to the uterine wall (more than 50%). It is ridiculous to consider these or any other failed gamete a new life simply because fertilization occurred. Lots of fertilizations are unsuccessful.
Of course, baby chicks also get eaten, but it is hard to argue they are not a "new life."
