    Black Copper Maran Ugly Eggs

    I’ve got to find out who’s laying the strange, ugly egg, Agatha or Effie. They are both Black Copper Marans, both from a breeder close to me, and both lay a very different looking egg from my first BCM, Molly Maran. She lays a gorgeous, chocolate egg (between a 6 and 7 on the BCM egg color...

    Odd Large Silkie Egg!

    A silkie layed this odd large egg that has a weird shell pattern, & bulge on one side. It's unevenly bumpy, but very smooth. What causes this?

    What just came out of my chicken?!? "lash egg?"

    Hi all, first time post here but read threads often! I went out to check on the girls and their eggs this morning and found the attached picture, which kinda freaked me out. It looks like a shriveled up egg with no yolk or anything inside and you can tell there is shell material in this. Should...

We have 4 hens, that are almost 3 years old (1 buff orp, one Easter Egger (she lays pale blue/green), 1 golden comet, 1 RI red. I believe it’s one of the latter 2. They are kind of wrinkled, but...

    Help I killed Chuck?

    I'm new to incubation. I gathered eggs for ever days. I put close to 100 in incubator. I've impatiently watched for days & days. Time to hatch. They wiggle and roll. Congratulations the waiting has paid off. We have babies. Lots and lots of babies. I have 5 eggs that haven't done anything. I...

    Not sure which one of my chickens laid the little itty bitty egg. I think it was her first attempt.

    Oddly Shaped Egg - Should I Be Concerned?

    I am currently away on vacation and the boy that is taking care of my girls sent me the attached photo of the eggs he collected today. One of my EEs apparently laid this large, long egg today. She's young, about 6 months old. She's never laid an egg like this before. Should I be concerned? Is...

    Post your photos of obscure eggs here.

    This perhaps very well may be my last allowed uploaded photograph. So I will use this thread to share a personal photo of the odd sizes of eggs we have collected the last year. I usually place the weird ones In the freezer for conversation pieces. Note that I placed a penny next to the smallest...
