That's got to hurt

One of my girls laid this:


As you can see it weighted in at 121 grams. If I had a carton of them it would way one and half kilograms. Is that X-Large or XXXX-Large? Unfortunately it is still short of the world record of 201 grams laid by a Chinese hen in 2009. Now that's got to hurt.


It was a double yolker that later made a very nice beetroot cake.

  3. Ouch! That's a whopper.I'm curious as to why a chook would suddenly lay one gigantic double yoker. I think this requires some research!

  6. Wow! That is enormous, I think our largest so far was only just over 100g! I'll bet there was a lot of noise in the dome that morning! :)
