Has anyone ever seen an egg like this!?!

Our girl, Mabelline, left us this crazy egg today.

is the bump just a lump of calcium? Wierd!

The shell is hard, but I will definitely investigate further once I crack the egg.

Yes see some with bumps now and then and nothing you should worry about. More common in young hens and older hens than in girls their prime in our experience.

My husband says that looks like an outie belly button.

We are not used to "natural" eggs since "Commercial" chickens are bred to all lay a consistent size and shape right down to the color of the yolk and white inside the egg. Our chickens are natural in the sense that they can lay an amazing array of shapes and colors.

Our chickens are the best and hippiest. Won't be surprised to see tie died eggs coming out of there soon.

Funny! My husband's comment wasn't quite so "G-rated."

It's true! I have been amazed by all the wonderful variations. One of our EE's lays an egg sometimes that looks like camouflage. My husband loves those!
