Never Thought I'd See One Of These.....Egg w/in a Egg (Pics)

Oops, I misread the OP, an egg inside an egg? I have never heard of it. Man, now I will be forever waiting for one!
I wonder if SpeckledHen has ever gotten one? I hope she sees these pictures!

What kind of chicken laid it?

I am not 100% sure, but I am thinking it is my two year old black marans egg. Her eggs are usually darker, like the inside egg was, but this outer shell was so light that I can't say for sure if it was her or not.

As large as the egg ended up being, I sort of hope she won't do that again! Poor thing whoever it was!

Too funny! The amazing thing is there weren't even any, what my kids would call, "skid marks" like there can be when pullets begin to lay....so I am thinking she was one of my older hens. But yeah, you'd think she would be in need of some TLC after that one.

I actually asked my son if there was a hen passed out in the nesting box when he brought the egg in. lol

That was the first question my husband asked when we opened it. I am thinking probably not, since the poor thing would have had to get through two shells.
