Perfectly formed egg found inside egg

Perfectly formed egg found inside egg

A cook has cracked open a hen's egg to find another perfectly formed egg inside.

Ann Cockcroft, 56, says she was making scrambled eggs for workers at a branch of Waitrose in Gosport, Hampshire, when she made the discovery.

The smaller egg measures 3cm in length - around a quarter of the size of the egg it came in, which also had a yolk.

Mrs Cockcroft said: "I have never seen anything like it. You expect to get the odd double yolk, but to find a whole egg inside another one really is just incredible."

Branch manager Tony Probert, who has kept the undamaged miniature egg in his office, said: "We were all astounded."

This is obviously the result of a rather horny hen engaging in "double-penetration" chicken sex.

Happens all the time.






Yes, Miss Buzzi, that was a chicken joke.

Some of the chickens we have make very odd shaped eggs. We had one that was like 4 inches long and shaped like a torpedo! This other one makes these little tiny eggs like the size of a quarter. The hens we have are this kind called araucana that lay blue eggs!

Two thoughts:

1) Not much happens in Gosport, Hampshire.

2) I find it more interesting that her name is COCKcroft.
