The other day I was collecting eggs and came across this little guy. I don’t have any bantams or young hens, but I found this guy. I’m not too worried about it, but I just thought it was funny so I wanted to share.

Without something for scale in the pic, like a quarter, it''s hard o say just how big or small that egg is. A weight might help too.

Might be a fart egg....open it up and see what's inside.
Fairy, fart, wind, rooster eggs are usually from a tiny piece of tissue breaking loose from the reproductive tract, or an immature ova(yolk) and the body forms an egg around it. Color can be darker than 'normal' as the pigment coating released has to cover a much smaller area so is thicker. Can happen with any age layer, but more common with older layers.
