Big Eggs

[whiteboy]

I have a RIR hen that lays about every 3 days. They just keep getting bigger. All single yolks. She is her 2nd year laying. These are from the last week. I should create a breeding program around her. haha. Post your big eggs for all to see!

This is from last year. Second pic is next to a 70g RIR egg. Her eggs the last few weeks have averaged 85-100g.

I got her at Orscheln; I don't know what hatchery they use. My big Buff Orpington laid the big egg, though.

Quail eggs. For size comparison, our normal small layer at 8 grams, and average egg at 11 grams, a Jumbo egg at 14 grams, and the behemoth at 22 grams. The poor hens in these posts
