Chicken Chaser
Yesterday I was in a discussion on a thread about eggs sizes and how long it takes them to get bigger. @Ridgerunner suggested that I might want to create a thread about how the eggs grew in size over time. So, pictures on a little measuring board with dates it is.
Backstory on the pullets laying the eggs. Have 6 pullets at 20.5 weeks of age, on Oct 12 the first egg was laid/found, it was small, and eaten by me, so no pictures of it.
Oct 13 we got 3 eggs (assuming we went to 3 pullets laying) and then on Oct 14 we got 4 eggs (assuming 4 hens laying). By looking at the eggs and writing in pencil the dates, you can see the progression of the egg sizes. Picture forthcoming.
