As some DPNow regulars know, the Burley household includes a small flock of rescued ex-battery hens. They have been coping with the recent cold and snowy weather very well, although today the egg production was slightly unusual. In the picture you can see one of the eggs from today on the left, a normal 72g example. But also found in the next box today, a 20g pygmy of an egg. This is a very rare occurrence and just had to be recorded photographically.

Well the pygmy is prettier!
I am sure they both taste equally good. I think photographically they are quite good. It is not that easy (for me) to take a pic of a spherical object and get it correctly in focus.Posted 19-12-10 at 09:52 PM by Autumn

Actually, the small egg is in focus, but the big one is only partially in focus, probably because of limited depth of field. The big egg has already been eaten!
