5 oz. Egg

[rileysgranny]

I think this is the largest egg we've had so far. I was shocked when I checked the nests yesterday. Wish I knew which hen laid it.

I googled egg sizes to find out which weight is associated with which egg size.

What a pain in the .................rear.

Wow, that's big! I like the coloring of the 1.5 oz one.

Looks like maybe a double yolker.

 

[WhySayWhat]

So, that makes it a "2XL" egg, right?

 

[rileysgranny]

Yep, a 2XL. The 1.5 oz. is from one of our Welsummers. I'm pretty sure the 5 oz. is at least a double yolker. We've yet to have a triple. I told DH to watch for the hen that is walking funny!

That's gotta be a double yolk! Man that had to hurt!

Crack it open and let's see how many yolks! My scale only weighs up to 2 1/2 oz. What type of scale do you have?
