    For the first time, we got a speckled egg! It is much smaller than the others we're getting, maybe half the size. Has anyone else had an egg like this from a Speckled Sussex? [​IMG]

    Up North when it's hot, Down South when it's not.
    Yes, and from my Rock crosses too! Perfectly typical.

    Thanks for the quick reply. I thought it would be normal, but since this is our first like that, I had to ask. [​IMG]
