Probably a large egg. Sometimes hens will lay a random goofy one. Orpingtons are generally slow to mature and lay brown eggs, so it would be a miracle if one laid an egg at three months!

Probably right, the chicken to egg ratio on that one is pretty insane though it was definitely an extra large egg(maxed out my old egg scale). I feel bad if my poor little silkie had to lay that lol.

So I found the chicken mounting one of my grown hens. Is this a good sign of a roo?

 

[The Happster]

Yes. Most certainly. Updated photos?
Looking through the pics, I agree with Rhode it looked like a cockerel.

 

[Adamadam]

Here he is. Any input would be great.

If it's mounting other pullets it's a cockerel.
