I have an OVER-ACHEIVING Chicken!

I guess I am going to have to get one of those donut pillows- I just got another BIG egg today. I wonder if this is going to be the norm for one of my girls.

And the hen lived through that???? Wow- Amazing. I watched your youtube video. Never knew an egg within an egg was even possible. I have a lot to learn about these chickens!

Thanks,
Jim

Too weird. Poor thing. . . Is she a new layer?

My Black sex link occassionally lays a dinosaur egg too! It makes me feel bad! hahaha I love it though because my choc. chip cookie recipe calls for one egg and one yolk, and my double yolk eggs work perfectly!

Amazing! I have a copper maran and she gives me jumbo eggs also, ad a double yolker at times. You got one heck of a cool bird to do this!

I just got our third BIG egg yesterday...my girl seems to be laying a huge egg every week to ten days. Exciting as it is, I certainly hope it doesn't cause problems for her down the line...
