Long story not so short. I purchased 30 eggs from a large poultry farm my neighbours son works on. They aren't typical commercial layers, apparently they use the birds for meat and sell eating eggs on the side.
My neighbour arrived home late so popped them in the fridge so when I got them the...
I have a pretty decently sized clutch of eggs from a friend and THIS one just so happens to be twice the size of all the others. I do not know if it's a double-yolker or a duck or something, but I just noticed this very faint ring and can't help but be worried
My Husband found this mystery egg in our meadow outside. It’s definitely not from my chickens because they are not laying yet and they do not free range. This is what it looks like cleaned up. I put a flashlight up to it and this is what it looks like on the inside. Do you think it’s worth...
I went out to collect today's eggs and, (call me crazy, I know each of my girl's eggs by heart) I happened upon this tiny, brown, lightly speckled egg. (It looks darker in person😅)
Now, all 3 of my EEs lay blue and true, so it's not them (also collected their eggs today)

There was a teeny tiny egg in the coop this morning! All our birds are young and we only have one bird, an Ameraucana, who’s been laying for about a week. Her first egg was 33 grams and her third/most recent is 41g.
The tiny egg is 9 grams!!! It’s smaller than a quail egg!
This egg is brown...

I was recently at the UC Davis campus because my class was going on a camping trip and we stopped at a park/garden area for lunch on the campus. I noticed a lot of smashed and crushed white eggs along the paths in this...
Okay, so I have chickens, ducks, and guineas. Below are my "coming of age" birds.
I read somewhere that guineas can start laying around 13-16 weeks old. I am not sure if that was accurate or not. This egg doesn't look like a chicken egg, so I can only assume it is either a young duck's first...
A bunch of our spring chicks just started laying, and we've got a mystery egg. It's small, but not bantam small, and round. It's a dark-brown, pinky colour with tiny white speckles all over it.
