Yes, the batch I hatched, the eggs were small. The chicks hatch small too. Not as small as Bantams, but they are small. I also had one egg in my clutch that was larger and that was the one egg that didn't hatch. Good Luck with your hatch.
Yes, the eggs are small. Mine are slightly larger than bantam eggs. Pound for pound, this bird lays sizable eggs compared to it's body. She's one of my faves!
Good luck on your hatch!Hey Everybody, This is my first post here on BYC. But since folks are asking about Svart Hona eggs, here is a picture of some eggs I received today from Orchard Hill Poultry. Letting them sit 12 hours before incubating. They are indeed smaller than a standard large egg, but the size seems to vary considerably from egg to egg.
how are your eggs developing?Hey Everybody,

Looks like a hona or cemani crossed with something else. Are the legs dark and toes ?
Does anyone know what breed/breeds this chick might be? Haven't had any luck on other threads!
When my hens were young pullets they laid very small eggs. We hatched them anyways and they are in our fun project flock and doing quite well. My breeding trio is now about 15 or 16 months and the eggs are about 30-40% larger than they were when they first started laying. They are maybe a little smaller than my isbar eggs. So, maybe you just have pullet eggs.
looks like an ayam or svart hona cross
