Clara has been broody, which means she has been sitting on eggs and waiting for a clutch to hatch. What she didn't know, is that I had put wooden eggs under her in hopes that I would get a few day old chicks to stuff under her and let her raise.
Well, my day old chicks ended up coming in at a week old. She took one look at them and pecked at their little heads and made no bones about not accepting them. She. Would. NOT.
So I removed the wooden eggs from under her, but she sat for two more days. Then she decided since the eggs were gone, and the chicks - well she wasn't havin' them - so she got up and stomped out of the hen house.
Two days later, she lays an EGG:
See her egg? The eggs behind Clara's egg are normal sized!
So I decided I needed to measure her EGG:
YEEOWWW! Yeah, it is a big egg!
I bet it is a double yolk.
Don't need it today, but when I crack it, I will let you know.
What do you think? Double? Single?
This is what I think...
Poor Clara!
