He got curious about his tiny egg and set it to incubate. AND IT HATCHED!

Just proves that not all fart/wind eggs are duds. Quite a few have yolks.

I have a hen that lays the opposite of f... uh, wind eggs. They are huge! At first I thought they were double yolked (and a few have been) but mostly their just BIG! They're nearly half again as long as the regular "grade A large" eggs my other hens lay and are mostly round on both ends (not one noticably smaller or more pointed end.) Inside, there is a regular sized yolk and lots of white! I'll post a pic if I can figure out how I did it last time!

Yesterday was the first time I actually got a wind egg but I knew about them because good friend gives my daughter all of her wind eggs. I don't really know this, but I have been tossing around a theory in my mind. I only have 7 laying hens and they are very regular layers, every other day 4 and 3. On Wednesday evening, I was doctoring some of their mating wounds, and I had shut the door to their laying coop. I forgot to open it, so I only had 1 egg on Thursday. Friday, I had 6 eggs. One of those eggs was huge, much bigger than normal. 1 of my hens lays large eggs anyways, but never this big. My theory is this: maybe, in pushing that really big egg out, she pushed to hard and pushed an underdeveloped egg out. When we broke this one open, it did have a small pea-sized yoke. Anyone think this is plaussible? Ideas? I didn't see which hen layed the large egg, but I would assume it was the same one as usual.
