Eggzilla!?

[ChickyNoob]

I went out the coop this morning to gather the eggs and this pterodactyl sized egg was sitting there. I don't know who laid it but I have never seen such a large egg.

I know that they come in all shapes and sizes but I thought that I would share. It brought me a lot of joy. Sometimes in life the simple things bring the most pleasure I guess.



I wonder if I should have hatched it :/

Its probably a double yolker i get them sometimes from new layers who system hasnt firgured it all out. It happens when two yolks are ripened at the same time and come out together.

I bet it is a double yolker. We got a 1/4 pound egg, it was huge and it was a double yolker.

Might even be a TRIPLE yolker! (I got a triple yolker a couple of years ago, it was huge )

Eggs still make me smile most days.
Probably multiple yolker.....which should not be incubated.

When my girls started laying I would get that size often and typically they were all double yokers!!

All my big ones like that were doubles. My son loves to look thrugh them with the flashlight to check. You have a very nice variety of colors with your eggs!

I'm willing to bet you have a hen with one very sore vent.

Thank you for your reply. Why not hatch a double? Could it be harmful?

 

[ChickyNoob]

Thank you!

My new obsession is the eggs of color. I love it that kids are involved with these things. It teaches them to do stuff
