Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
A couple in Cornwall, England, who have been keeping chickens for more than 25 years, thought they had seen everything that the agricultural life could dish out. But then one of their 30,000 hens laid an egg that is four times the size of the eggs they normally see on the farm.
They say that it is a perfectly shaped egg, with a smooth shell and even finish. They can't determine which chicken laid this honker of an egg, but inspections have uncovered nothing and all the hens appear to be in good health. They plan on blowing the contents out of the egg and displaying the shell at their stand at the Royal Cornwall Show.

My chickens need to get their butts in gear (oh so punny) in gear and lay me some giant eggs.

Usually the eggs have multiple yolks in them (2 or 3, sometimes 4), meaning multiple eggs fused together at some point in the egg laying process. The jumbo eggs are just as yummy as the normal-sized ones.
