Tiny egg

[Pepperthechicken]

She laid a tiny egg yesterday. She is a two year old (birthday was yesterday) black Sex-link so she lays pretty sizable eggs, but why did she lay a tiny egg?

High production breeds may have glitches like that sometimes. Did it have a yolk?

Crack it open in a bowl. It's possible that an egg formed over a piece of reproductive tract tissue that sloughed off. See what's inside and post pictures.

Did not check yet, saving it for dinner.

It’s okay, we can wait. There are two types of fairy eggs, one which contains an immature yolk, and another which contains no yolk formed when a piece of tissue is mistaken as one. If it is The latter option then you won’t really have anything to eat If you plan to crack in open this evening.
