Our red sex link layed a 2.8 oz egg the other day.
They’re usually 2-2.1oz.

Nice egg!

Wow, that had to hurt! Kudos to your poor girl!
I’ve had one triple yolker, but it only came in at 71 grams. The yolks were much smaller than normal.

I'm always a bit alarmed when one of my hens lay a gynormous egg like that. I had one hen who was always pushing out jumbos at a rate of 5 a week. She prolapsed and died last November. Another hen, a Welsummer, always laid really big eggs. She died at 2.5 years. Just lost weight and that was it for her. I suspect that laying huge eggs wears the reproductive system of the hens out as well as wears the hen out faster..

As for incubating the egg. Not easy to hatch out twins. One or both have been known to die.

Ouch!

From a human POV that must be equal to a 110 pound woman giving birth to a 15 pound baby boy.

Double ouch!

My mother weighed 115lbs when she gave birth to me a 11lb 12oz. It was hospital record until my younger brother was born 4 years later 11lbs 15 1/2oz.

I wouldn't try to hatch it's, the twins will either die or end up deformed, if it even hatches at all
