This egg is a real giant ...... it is shown with a mixture of duck and 'normal' hen eggs.

There seem to be no ill effects

whats its weight?

The most i have had so far is a 91 grammer! That looks like it would exceed 100g!

Biggest one I ever had was 125gms, but that is certainly a size!

wow Grannie, did the hen walk like a cowboy

Just weighed it ...... it's a whopping 125g

We don't even know which hen is responsible; all skipping about as usual, mind you she'll probably resign for good after that.

Goodness! And ouch!

Keep the camera handy when you crack it open - it might be a double yolker or other such interesting egg. The biggest my pullets have laid so far is 80g and that seemed pretty big at the time. 125g is enormous!

I guess I'd look for the one with the eyes popping out - what a whopper!

O.H. used it and I didn't even see it!

He said it was equivalent to two XXL eggs.

Wow!!
Ours are normally around 63 grams, our biggest so far was 90 grams which was a double yolker, and two days later we were an egg short, so I guess that was her recovery time!!
