Our eggs have been averaging about 45g (which is a size “small” in the USA). We have had a couple reach up to 49g, but we were shocked with a relatively huge 61g (large) egg!

We broke the egg open and it had a double yolk! Turns out this is most common with hens that are just starting to lay because their system hasn’t quite figured it all out yet. Or with older chickens nearing the end of their egg production. We obviously have the former.

Based on the camera footage, we think Jade is the layer of the double yolker, using the comb identification method.
