Random white eggs

[mamalu]

They sure look like duck or even goose eggs. Could someone be playing a joke on you ?

I don’t think so

Crazy, right?

No it's not crazy. Wild birds need to lay eggs too.

We do have Canadian geese in the field behind our house

There is your answer.

I have nothing to contribute, but this is interesting! Have you cracked any open?

Not yet

There is no way a goose could get into the coop

No. Each about 2 days apart

I have found 3 very large white eggs with my normal brown eggs. I have 4 2 year old isa browns. Thoughts?

I've had the same experience, with a young Australorp, (brown egg-layer). This bird is a bit of a trickster, which is why she's named "Joker", I just never know what surprise I'll find in her nest box. She's my smallest hen, yet has laid eggs so large, that I've gone back over her to check her for prolapse..How does a hen this small, lay these huuuuge huge eggs?
And then there was the day she left a super-sized - white - egg. My guess is it's a double-yolked egg. I've put it into a lime solution, for use later this winter. There are no other chicken owners in my urban neighborhood, and my coop remains locked until I get home from work, each afternoon, no way could any other bird have visited. It's a mystery to me, why this happened, but it did, and only once, so far.

You could install a camera if you are willing to invest money in one or even move a current camera you haves set up somewhere else and try to find the culprit

I would break open at least one big egg, to see if it has two yolks.

Double yolk eggs can be extra-large, and sometimes they are also lighter colored than the normal eggs for that hen (the same amount of brown looks lighter when spread over a bigger egg.)
