Hi, All! One of my newer chickens, an Araucana, is still laying tiny eggs after quite a few weeks. The other newbies' eggs have gotten closer to adult size by now, but she is perfectly happy with her little pippins. She's the same age as the other new ones. She herself is not a small chicken -- rather, a bit larger than my Araucanas from last year.
I'm not concerned about her eggs; she could go on laying munchkins forever for all I mind. It just got me to wondering, though... if I were able to hatch some of these, would the resulting chickens also be miniature?
Thanks for anyone's thoughts!
