I have an EE that has been laying 4 nice big eggs every week since April. Big Eggs! Like 2 ounces big. Now, I also have these 2 Amereacuna's that I raised from babies that are about 17 weeks old. Sooo, today DH finds a "bigger than small" egg laid in the middle of the chicken yard! Since my EEer, Janet, always has laid eggs in the hen house and they are always BIG, I'm wondering if this "yard egg" might belong to one of the youngsters?
 
The size & location of egg would tell me it is someone else. Congrats on another layer!

I don't know EEs, but we've had a number of heavier breed birds start at "bigger than medium." Congratulations!

:weee Just need to sweet talk them into getting back into the groove of 2 or 3 eggs a day! I also have a medium size brown egg that appeared in a nest, but doesn't look as big as the brown ones the Cochin "Liz" was laying. Maybe with the kids getting into the act, the Ladies will get back into the game. Cain't Wait!
