Holy EGG!!

[VHoffman]

My cinnamon queens and golden comets just started laying eggs in mid-october. Look at the eggs that I'm getting from my cinnamon queens! I am not a small woman, so my hands are not small by any stretch of the imagination. The lighter eggs pictured are from my golden comets and the darker eggs are from my cinnamon Queens. The golden comets lay a standard medium size egg. The cinnamon Queens usually lay a standard large to jumbo size egg but the two that are in my hand, are super jumbo!

poor girls, they need epidurals.

I know, right?! If that came out of me I'd need some Preparation H, STAT!!

When eggs come down the pipe, they're pointy end first. When they're laid, they're round end first.

So at some point,

they turn sideways.

Wow! I have 4 cinnamon queens that have been laying about a month. Their eggs are still quite small! I had to use 6 eggs to equal 4 large in a muffin recipe. I'm wondering if they are ever going to get bigger. I get 3 or 4 eggs a day from my 4 girls.
