Teeny Tiny EGG!!! (PICS)

[naturegirl]

My Dark Cornish has been laying for about 4 weeks now and her eggs have been medium to large. I found this in the nesting box she just left and what a suprise!! It's smaller than a golf ball and little larger than a quarter. Is this normal??

Here it is compared to pool cue chalk and a quarter

Here it is compared to a medium egg

Oh my!!!

Around here people call them "fart eggs" cause they just farted them out

It's normal to get those from time to time, even experienced layers will lay small ones or double yolkers every now and then.

Congrats on the tiny one! It really is neat to find them. I posted mine here. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=239526
