Soo66 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Brand new chicken woman, two girls, had them a month now. Rita has been laying for a week, Bette laid her first two days ago...proud mum. She laid her second today and it's brought tears to my eyes! Is it normal for eggs to be such varying sizes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeshen Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Ouch! Poor Bette. I guess eggs do enlarge as hens mature, but that's quite a jump in size between numbers 1 and 2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Positive Thinker Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 It's definitely a double yolk. Geraldine laid one after a few weeks of laying but never had one since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soo66 Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 It was a double...I was prepared..thanks. I still had two eggs though! So double egg and chips with three dippy yolks, cue applause for Bette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
