Upon quick glance, this looks like a normal dozen of eggs:
From our lovely, albeit sqwuak-y, hens.
Until you look at the bottom green egg, second in from the left. No? Can't see it? Look a bit closer...
GIGANTOR EGG!
(That's not a real world. I made it up. But it sounded way cooler. Like "gigantic" but with "or" on the end.)
This is GIGANTOR EGG compared to two normal eggs:
Apparently Athena, our "Easter-egger" hen, grew into a giant chicken overnight & began laying eggs the size of my hand. We now have a chicken the size of a toddler stomping around the backyard & eating small pets that get too close.
Not really. But wouldn't that make a good story? "The Story of Athena, the Monster Chicken!" We haven't cracked the GIGANTOR EGG, but we're fairly certain it's a double-yoker. We kept an eye on her after the epic egg-laying, as we were worried it might have caused some damage & potential ensuing infection (even I cringed when I saw that egg - there's no way it didn't hurt when it popped out). However, other than being extra hungry the next morning, she seemed to survive the whole ordeal.
I promise to post pics when we crack the egg.
Oh, my gracious!! That is one huge egg..Poor chicken, she musta hurt a bunch after that.
