Did anyone get that email last Thanksgiving about sticking some Cornish game hens in with the stuffing before baking it. Then when they served it claimed they had baked a pregnant mother turkey? It was really funny.

If you want eggs, Australorps are some of the best laying hens ever. We had a dozen of those, and many of them laid two eggs/day. Very hardy chickens that start laying early, and even free range outside, lay all through the winter.

Or more, possibly. My parent’s friend gave them an egg her hen had laid. The laying of the egg killed the hen. I don’t know how much it weighed, but I’d wager it was quite a bit over four ounces. The egg was a quintuple (yes, five!) yolker.

I once bought a dozen extra large eggs that had 23 yolks. I don’t know why that one egg was defective.

4 1/2 ounces is enough to make an omelet to feed 2 people comfortably.
Not quite sure where you're getting this.. I usually have a good 4 large eggs in mine ;)

Yikes. I hope they gave that hen the rest of the week off. She’s earned it.

All her large eggs were double yoked, unfertilized. But had they been fertilized, two chicks would have hatched.

I thought you folks might get a kick out of the egg one of my girls laid today...
15 grams! There's probably more shell than egg....
