Congrats on that egg! Yeah, that's a big egg! Are your birds pullets? If so, it can take a while for young birds to get their egg machines working properly. Some will lay very small eggs and some lay dinosaur eggs like this one. No doubt that egg has 2 yolks in it. Double yolkers can happen for a couple of months until the pullet grows and matures a bit more.
Welcome to BYC. We are glad you joined this flock!
Jump right in and make yourself at home.
Have you opened it yet? I bet it's a double yolker.
