Not sure if this tiny little egg is just a fluke from one of my 2011 Guinea pullets, or if it's officially the start of the laying season around here. Normally I do not get any intermittent eggs from my flocks. (Oh boy if it IS the start of the season tho... I'll be starting the incubator 3 weeks earlier this year!). I've found smaller yolkless round eggs (fart eggs) in previous years, but this is my very first tiny regular shaped egg. (The brown chicken egg in the pic is a medium).
I'll let ya know when I use it for cooking if it has a yolk or not. It's almost too cute crack open tho, lol. (And yes I am a hatch-a-holic, but no I am not firing up the incubator for one tiny little egg in hopes of hatching a Mini-Guinea
)
