OUCH!

A collection of our organic eggs

            

               Okay.  Look at the size of the egg second from the left.  Look at all the other eggs.  Look at the BIG egg again... Thus far, every woman who has seen this egg says the same thing: "Ouch!" All our chickens' eggs are on the large size.  I guess we are feeding them well, or, maybe it's the hugs and kind words we give them. A couple of our chickens lay double-yolked eggs every day;  they are pretty good sized...  Surely, it has got to hurt laying these bigguns'.
               But, THIS egg is big!  Just big!  We are wondering if it will be a triple-yolked egg.  Is there such a thing?  I don't know.  Moshe and I talked about blowing out the egg so as to preserve the eggshell; then I could use it for some sort of craft display.  But, if we do that, we won't know how many yolks it has.  Decisions, decisions, decisions.
               Moshe measured a regular egg and "the monster egg".  A regular egg measures 1.60 in wide by 2.045 in tall. The monster egg measures 1.89 inwide by 2.725 in tall.  In other words, the monster egg is  one-third of an inch wider and three-quarters of an inch taller than a normal egg.

Wow!     Shalom Y'all,     Twyla
