turkey hens laying different size eggs

[dwlacy]

I have three turkey hens and am getting 2 or 3 eggs a day.

I have noticed that the eggs vary in size, one what I would consider a normal sized turkey egg, 103g, then one a little smaller, 83g & one about the size of a duck egg, weighing 71g, and was wondering why there was such a variance in size.

Some of mine start small and get bigger as time goes by
Some of mine always lay a smaller egg

It is normal. It can depend on the individual turkey and how old it is.

Just curious do you have chickens too and are the turkey eggs bigger? My turkey eggs and duck eggs are the same size as my checken eggs

I have one first year layer that is laying eggs that are equivalent to an extra large chicken eggs. Jumbo eggs I get from the chickens are bigger.

The other turkey hens are older and their eggs are all bigger than any of the chicken eggs. They also differ in size from each other.
