Not sure yet, we’ve just been gawking at it and haven’t eaten it yet.

… I sense a follow up post.

Oddly, in the US at a local hardware store. I bought it specifically because it had metric on it and was small. Metric system, best system.

All from adult (2.5 year old) hens within a one week span 🤷

EDIT: also, one particular hen routinely lays those large, weird, elongated eggs. She’s a buff orpington

I support it!

No, all of our hens are “normal” sized layers - speckled sussex, buff orpington, white leghorn, and black stars. Based on the color of the egg, I think it was from a speckled sussex.

For fun, here’s a large-normal-small comparison.

I have one particular chicken that does this pretty regularly. Long and kind of skinny, often with an odd texture on the end, sometimes with a weird constriction in the middle.

Also, you inspired me to post a pic of a tiny egg I got last week : https://lemmy.world/post/24677253

This is from a full grown 2.5 year old chicken that typically lays “normal” eggs… not sure why she laid one tiny one randomly.
