figarogir1 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 It isnt sad to weigh your eggs, well maybe it is but we all do it I didnt weigh my first couple because I didnt think of it, then I realised that everyone on here seemed to be. I started and now even my teenagers weigh an egg when they bring it in to check if they are getting any bigger. It is quite a competition as to who can collect the biggest egg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
