  • inactive, on 11/03/2008, -3/+77Some rooster's been laying some serious pipe.
  • protodon, on 11/03/2008, -0/+46This made global news?!? I have chickens and the ***** up eggs I have seen, let me tell you. Once one of my chickens laid a goose-sized egg. It was amazing...and all ***** up. The shell had this ripples in it like something weird was going on to make it. I kept that egg in the fridge for months until it exploded and a black sulfur smelling mess.

  • jtotheoe, on 11/03/2008, -2/+42Clearly laid by a double-chicken.
  • gkniffen, on 11/03/2008, -0/+23One could say: "That's one impressive *****!"
  • MisterEX, on 11/03/2008, -0/+20That was quite random, but entertaining.
  • inactive, on 11/03/2008, -3/+21Better title: Egg = more egg!

    later at denny's:

    "sir how would you like your eggs tonight?"

    "I like my eggs with egg."
  • inactive, on 11/03/2008, -0/+18This is not that unusual. I grew up on a farm and can remember this occurring at least once. The only relatively unusual element of this story is the size of the original egg, but malformed or mutant eggs are layed by hens all the time.
  • NickLee808, on 11/03/2008, -0/+13This is quite possibly one of the most epic headlines in quite some time.

  • smacksaw, on 11/03/2008, -0/+10So, what's for breakfast? The inner egg or the outer egg? Would you even eat any of it?

    Lister: Well, it was better than being a chicken. I mean, you've seen the size of an egg. You've seen the size of a chicken's bum. I was trying to say, in chicken-talk, "For God's sake, give me an epidural."

  • Grahamcracker, on 11/03/2008, -0/+4I dunno about the outside egg, the inside one probably wouldn't because it would suffocate, the shell actually lets in oxygen.
  • internalprime8, on 11/03/2008, -0/+4I don't know about that chick but if I was trying to break out of an egg and there was another egg outside of that one, I'd go back to hibernating.

    Can we visit your farm?
  • RadicalEdward, on 11/03/2008, -0/+3It would have been more interesting to see what the chicken would be like had one come out of the smaller egg. They should hook the chicken up who laid that egg with a rooster and see what happens.
