Weird Egg for Mother’s Day

Remember back to the monster egg that I talked about in my post One Simple Fact About Backyard Chickens?

It weighed in at 110gms which is definitely unusual.  It turns out that is was even more unusual when I finally cracked it open today for Kim’s mothers day breakfast.

It was an egg inside an egg.  Yes folks, it was a half-formed egg with soft shell that only contained the thick albumen (egg white), with no yolk.

I chose not to give this one to Kim to avoid the freaky factor, so I just opened the second inside egg into the first egg and cooked it up with no issues at all.  It was delicious.

So it just goes to show that backyard chooks are indeed simply awesome!

Oh, and a big Happy Mothers day to all the Mums out there.  I hope you are enjoying your day.
