What breed of chicken lays jumbo eggs

[ChicksR4Me]

My chickens lay nice brown eggs but they are not real big. There are some girls at work that say they would like bigger eggs. So I was wondering what breed of chicken lays the largest brown?

Red Stars, Rhode Island Reds, some black stars, some Buff Orpingtons, some Delawares.

you bet... I have RIR and Bo's and I love their jumbo eggs!! I have 4 cinnamon/golden commet hens whose eggs are half that size-hoping to get bigger though because they are new pullet eggs

People swear by turkens.

I only have one turken and she lays a jumbo egg. I also have a splash "marans" that lays a bigger jumbo brown egg, but it is only about the color of the turken egg, just a shade darker.

Most of the commercial hybrids will lay a large brown egg.


(Well, apart from those which lay a large white egg.
