Today I got this very large egg (one on the left) but I do not know what bird it is from. The one on the right is a medium size egg that's probably from a cochin or a silkie mix. I only have one hen that lays large eggs but they are brown and she is currently sitting on eggs. Could this be a turkey egg? I have a Naragansett and a Royal Palm that haven't started laying yet (unless this is one of theirs). Or do some smaller hens lay really large eggs?

Not sure if it's could be a turkey egg.....do they lay greenish eggs?

Is the egg on right from a newer layer?
If so, the one on the left could be a double yolker-common in first month or so of laying.

Both are from new layers. And actually one of the eggs my son cracked today was a double yolker. It may have even been that one!
 
Last week we got our first double yolker from last years pullets. Normal egg size for this flock is right on the line of medium to large, 55-60 grams. This one was 94 grams and double yolker.
