If you don't care about history, you can just

  $ chicken-install -r <egg>

(-r is for -retrieve)

Alternatively, you can fetch the source from the code repository.  See
the documentation for the eggs you want the sources.  If you can't find
a link to the VCS repo in the documentation (usually in sections like
"Repository" or "About this egg"), the source is probably in our good
old (maybe not really good) subversion repository.  In this case, see
http://code.call-cc.org/#eggs-repository for instructions on how to
fetch the source code.  If you can't find a link to the VCS repository
in the egg documentation and the egg is not in the CHICKEN subversion
repo, please report a bug. :-)

Best wishes.
Mario
