dame egna Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Should I be worried about getting tiny eggs?! Yesterday and today I have had two tiny eggs, and from different chooks too. Is this anything to be worried about? Todays was in the run, so not even in the nesting box. Edited to say I took the pic of the two small eggs next to the normal sized eggs we usually have from the girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 They look fine I've had one that looked like a malteaser from Matilda! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 It's normal for the egg size to vary. Really tiny ones like Lewis mentions are called 'wind eggs' and don't usually have a yolk - the egg is formed around a piece of grit that's found its way into the oviduct.
