Now THAT is an egg...
It is staring to show signs of being spring. Seemed like a really long winter and I've had enough winter for one year.
One more sign of spring showed up this week. I found an egg. Two day later, I found another. Both were in the old rabbit hutch where the chickens always brood their eggs.
These are no ordinary eggs. Take a look at the whopper that Caleigh is holding here.
No, there isn't a really tired chicken out there, the big white eggs are being laid by the Sevastopol goose. I'll see how many she lays in a week, week and a half, and perhaps put them in the incubator. Sevastopols are funny looking, kinda like a sheep crossed with a goose because they are white and have curly feathers. Truth be told, they are kind of silly looking.
I don't have convenient photos of our Sevastopols, but you can learn about them here. They are kind of a rare breed.
