That is so tiny! Was there anything in it? Or have you used it yet?

Your weird egg is called a slab sided egg! It made contact with another egg in the egg tract and got flattened on the side it made contact.

Yeah I looked it up and figured that's what it was. Thanks!

Oh, wrinkled eggs can have many reasons.. respiratory disease of sorts is a biggie. See the following article to try and help determine which type of anomaly you are seeing and what the cause may be.. That one looks like it MIGHT be slab sided??

Hope you get some helpful clues and that your flock is well!

Yeah it's not terribly wrinkled or anything. I think it is one of my new layers this year. I haven't figured out which one yet. Yes my flock is all healthy as far as I know. I am leaning towards that chicken having a laying problem. They are all hatchery chickens so I don't have as high expectations as if they were specially bred. Thanks for replying!

I got a teeny egg about the size of a quarter and it had a tiny yolk smaller than a dime.

Yes I did see that but the last post was in 2019 so I thought I'd start another one
