Giant Egg

The chickens, ordinary mixed barnyard chickens, are enjoying spring.
Someone laid this egg today.

It weighs 100 grams!
(And yes, I did tare the glove - that's to keep the egg from rolling.)


Egg weight ranges from small - 43 grams
medium - 50 grams
large - 57 grams
and most of ours are in the 60 to 70 gram range
extra large - 64 grams
jumbo - 71 grams
giant - 78 grams
super giant - 85 grams
gigantic - 92 grams
ouch - 99 grams

This does not fit in any egg carton we have!

My guess is someone is walking bowlegged!
