Yes, she lays lots of double yolkers. I'm sure this is one as well.....

Anything over 2.5 oz is considered a jumbo. I guess you need a new size- whooper

I'm sure it sounds gross, but I've actually had really good luck by drilling a very tiny hole at each end and then 'sucking' the egg out of the shell. Granted... you can't really cook the egg afterwards, but I've never broken a shell by sucking the egg out.

After you blow the egg, cnsider shellacing it as they are fragile without their contents. My daughter has done this for cute pullet eggs, tho we'venever had a Big Bertha quite like yours!

Modpodge is cheap and works great - available at any craft store.
Wowee!

Wow, what a great idea! Thanks for sharing that with the OP. It helps me out with my egg project also b/c I hadn't even thought of using something to shellack the egg!​

I have gotten some large eggs but that is even bigger than I have ever gotten. I feel for the girl that produced it!!!!!!
