Boiled Egg Oddity

[MetalheadChickenLady]

So one of my girls (idk which one) laid an unusually small egg, but not small enough to really be considered a fart egg. No idea if the size of it is the cause of this, but when I boiled it up, the yolk had the same [maybe a smidge rubberyer, snapped instead of crumbled when torn apart, shiny and smooth, etc] texture as the white. It was cooked in a batch with some other regular eggs in one of those small dedicated egg boiling gadgets.

Thoughts? (I didnt eat it. That dark spot was dubious, unsure if regular sulfur discoloration or not.)

It might just be overcooked.

A lot of time new layers will lay smaller eggs or other strange-looking eggs to start off with. I had one that laid smaller round eggs for two weeks. I can't say the yolks did that as there barely was a yolk at all in hers but we just tossed them.

We have one of those same gadgets and they usually HB an egg to perfection.
