Laying a miniature egg???

[RussianChickens]

So I went out to collect eggs today to find this!

Idk who would have layed it or why. The other eggs are store sized eggs. Just regular/medium.

Will it hatch if I incubate it?

When my chickens have laid eggs like that we call them fart eggs because there's nothing in them, no yolk...I don't know if that's what your egg is or not, could candle it and look for a yolk...

I agree with Firekin1 or it could be a new layer. Any just starting out?

What are the little beads on it?

A little extra calcium

A little extra calcium

Oh. Well there is something floating in it. Idk if its a yolk. What else could it be?

Can I eat it?

It could be a piece of tissue that broke off and the egg formed around it. I personally don't eat them because it doesn't look appetizing when I crack open the eggs to snoop, so I don't know if you actually can or not...

I get them on new layers and fart eggs, either way, unless I am in survival mode and would eat bugs, I would not eat it. maybe its just me.

Well apparently even the tissue that could be in it would be 100% safe to eat. Idk if it will look all that good though. If not I'll feed it to the hens.
