You know those plump hens I was telling you about? I sold the poor things short...well, at least one of them. I went into the pen and lo and behold, there was an egg! Color me a surprised farm girl!! It was pretty big too! I figure maybe that had to do something with why they never lay...a behemoth egg like that could cause damage...LOL. Anyway, we brought it in and marveled over it and took a picture of it beside a normal large egg. When I fried it for supper, we discovered that it was double yolked.
The rest of the story is that all those chickens are now gone. I will spare you the details. We have several in the freezer and the rest....well, that's another story for another day. We still have our laying hens, banty chickens, and a couple of renegade roosters roaming the yard. And I'm good with that....
