Our first whopper - bottomed out the scale!

Are you sure a goose didn't get into the coop?

What are you feeding those chickens out there in the desert?

What does it read on the scale for the heaviest eggs?

 

[debryman]

I just feed them layer pellets but give them as much greens as possible.

The heaviest marked is extra large at 2.5oz. This egg was 3.1oz. Pretty cool though )

 

[Bullitt]

Wow, that is a big egg.

What breed of hen laid that egg?

 

[debryman]

She's a Barred Rock. That was the only giant one. Her last two were just at large on the scale.

 

[Bullitt]

That hen might have to take a couple of days off after laying that egg.

Was it a double yolker? Whenever get one overly large like that they are usually doublers.
