Bantams laying giant eggs?

[Mellowmalt]

The older my chickens got the bigger the eggs got. It ended up feeling like I had ostriches out there, eggs certainly got too big for me which is why I have gone for Bantams this time round, now you tell me they lay big eggs too but could it be that they are just getting used to laying eggs and this will settle?

Kitchen scale?

We dont have one, I was going to use a bathroom scale but I was afraid that that would not be accurate.

you are right, but a bath room scale might work for ostrich eggs though.

Hummm, I don't know they look like my Golden laced wyandotte. The eat layer pellets with scratch and they get to forage around the goats pen and outside of their coop and they sometimes get berries, lettuce, ect. No meat or processed foods.

I would guess they’re Golden Sebrights.
