Chortle Chook Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 As some of you may know, I've been a bit peeved with my chickens of late for trashing my beautiful irises. I withdrew all mealworms, didn't give them their usual elevenses shortbread biscuit and cooked up their eggs for the dogs. Now this is what someone has laid for me today This is the tiny egg next to another of my bantam chicken eggs (so not even compared to a standard chicken egg) Either someone was taking their revenge, or someone is too posh to push (Sorry, Mods, I've tried and tried to size this down but photobucket seems to be throwing a wobbly and won't do it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackian Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I had one of these last week from my little Rose, I decided to make an egg sandwich with it for work .Boiled the egg and sliced it and no yolk at all.. Never lays an egg like that when you need only white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 had one of those yesterday - no yolk - froze it for meringues - if I wanted yolkless ones I couldnt get them todAY a long torpedo shaped egg. The layer of these is an old lady well 3+ yrs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chortle Chook Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Yes, I think mine are from an old gal too. I guess she felt she had a right to dig up the irises too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
