In the incubator, I have a 96g egg.

I have candled it everyday to see if it is still going.

I cannot wait to see this chick.

I am afraid it might drown if not near the airsac.

It is not a double yolker.

It has stress fractures all the way around the egg.
It is the largest single yolk egg my girls have ever laid.

Betty lays 83g eggs on a regular basis.

This egg came from another.

Dad is one of my F2 Dark Cornish Roosters out of BamBam.
Mom is either a Pure Dark Cornish or a 50%DC-50%CX.
Guinevere my SOP DC is the only hen known to lay in the upper barrel. If this egg is hers I will be surprised. Her eggs are never larger than 58g.
Fingers crossed the hatch date 5/14/17.
