    Sunrise Chicks Chicken Coop Plans And Progress Pictures

    How many pullet eggs ?

    Quote: It probably depends on the size of your pullet eggs, but when I make cakes with my pullet eggs I do about 1.5 pullet eggs for 1 large egg. I made a pound cake the other day that called for 6 large eggs so I used 9 pullet eggs and it was great!
