A comparison of egg sizes

After I wrote yesterday’s post Freckles laid an egg. She is our best egg layer. We then had to buy some shop eggs as a catering customer had requested a plain, sliced egg, sandwich.

I know I have done comparisons before but I thought I would take the opportunity to compare a medium sized, standard girl’s, egg with Freckles and Apricot’s eggs.

Egg size comparison

Medium, shop bought, egg on the left, Freckles egg in the middle and Apricot’s tiny egg on the right.

Tiny but perfect!

    Very cute.

  2. They are cute. I showed Robert and Steph today and they said that Apricot’s egg is pretty much the size of a quail’s egg. The good thing is that Apricot should never have a prolapse with tiny eggs like that. Every egg whatever size is much appreciated though.
