One Sapphire Gem lays HUGE eggs!

They've all been double yolks so far. It's this normal? We're thrilled. But it's becoming the rule rather than the exception.

New layers often lay double Yolks as their bodies are still getting used to it. Perfectly normal

My sapphires did that for 6 months alarmingly.

Even 9-10 months old had the occasional huge egg (100 grams +/- 5)
Gave them to wife’s uncle. He gets them now and then. They’re 3yrs old now.

My gem lays huge eggs too! Not as big as yours (which are impressive wow!) but she lays XL eggs compared to my other girls who lay medium in comparison. I always feel sorry for her when I collect her egg cause I’m sure it’s not fun to pop those babies out lol

I was looking for some fellow Sapphire Rock-keepers. We have one that lays a HUGE (definitely jumbo) egg nearly every day. She is two months shy of 2 years old and has still not molted or gone broody. I wondered if others experienced the same thing with this breed or whether she was special (well, of course she’s special, but…).

With these new ads I can't see my typing. I was going to say wow, these are huge!!

Our latest Cornish cross chicken egg was 4.4 ounces, 125 grams! Half an ounce larger than our last 3.9 oz monster egg, both doubles.

Not digging these ads,vreally can't see my own typing, and can't add monster egg pics . Sorry, super annoying.
