Title: Ouch......that hurt
Post by: Paulines7 on May 30, 2007, 21:53:22
I was amazed when I took this egg out of the box this evening.  I have only got hens, no geese.   ;D ;D

The penny is off the actual scale so is not being weighed.  I just put it there for comparison of size.

Saw this earlier & thought huh - my chicken is laying enormous eggs too.  I went & weighed them & the biggest only made 85g so yours must be absolutely huge!  Mine are from a 4 year old hybrid called Happy [long story but her siblings all died!] & her eggs have just got bigger & bigger although she is moth eaten & looks dreadful.  She is laying virtually every day & I keep telling her to slow down - she'll wear herself out but she won't give up.  :)
