Guest Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I'm sure someone else must have seen this story, but I can't find it. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1191530/Pictured-The-gigantic-egg-big-took-poor-Efel-hen-30-minutes-lay.html This hen lives locally to me and is a Gingernut Ranger, so I assume she lives in an eglu. 194g! The story was in our local paper on Thursday but appears to be in all the papers today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redranger Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Saw it in the newspaper this morning. That is a MASSIVE egg - and would go straight to the top of the Omlet leaderboard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 WOW! OUCH! That must've hurt . I wonder how many yolks were inside ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 What a pity she isn't an Omleteer.....that would definitely top the Egg leader board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 That's a big egg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 What a pity she isn't an Omleteer.....that would definitely top the Egg leader board. I think they might own an eglu though, as they called their chickens, a Miss Pepperpot and a Gingernut Ranger as breed names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
