Worlds smallest egg

Quote:
I came home one day and found one of my hens head bloodied up w/ no feathers also. I couldn't imagine one of her penmates doing this. I take such effort to protect them from their predators, it made me sad to think that they would kill one of their own. I'll never know which one did it. She was not dead but I took her to the vet so she would not suffer anymore. Sorry for your loss.
As for the culprit, I've heard that weasels bite the heads off and suck the blood out? Could that be a possibility?
 
- so today I found the tiniest little egg. I only have chickens, no bantams. I don't know who left it. Needless to say, I found it interesting someone else had an anomaly too. I wonder what the yolk looks like!
 
I've had a few of those eggs. Barely larger than a penny. Some are all yolk, while others have been all white.
Chickens are weird.
 
I enjoy making pickled eggs. I have tried quail eggs, that I purchased, they were delicious but they are too expensive.
I would appreciate information on what breed of chicken lays quail sized eggs.
