In Japan an egg was found inside a giant chicken egg. There are pictures in this article.

Gecko in chicken egg. It was a brown egg if that matters to you. Lizards crawl in and the shell forms around them.

A Herefordshire farm’s chickens are dying after hot air balloons scare them and eggs break inside them. The broken egg then festers inside the chicken. Air planes and balloons, just go away!.

I ran across this site about Japanese egg molds and it has some neat stuff in it. These would be great if you have kids.

One last thing chook is a name for a chicken in Australia and New Zealand.

I have to end this with one of my favorite Australian curses.
May your chooks turn into emus and kick your dunny down. (A dunny is the outhouse.)

Well, now, that solves an ancient dilemma pretty neatly – what came first? It’s eggs, all the way down! :stuck_out_tongue:

Good lord, that poor chicken! Her cloaca must be aching! :eek:

It reminded me of the matryoshka dolls.

A friend of mine keeps chickens and one of them laid a very small egg at the end of the summer this year - about the size of a large grape - it was all white - no yolk at all.

Thanks, HD. One more thing to add to my “creeps me out” list. I’m not sure which is worse – the thought of a gecko crawling in a chicken’s cloaca for a “feed,” or that look of diabolical glee on the guy’s face. ::shudder::

The chicken and the egg are lying in bed. The chicken is lying back puffing contentedly on a cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg is tugging at the bedsheets and rolling off the wet patch saying - “Well, I guess that’s answered that one”.

Looks like the eggs have finally figured out how to eliminate the chicken step entirely.

I’m on the egg of my seat!

Anyone want to lay any bets?

I’m too chicken to enter a punning contest in this thread! You’ll have to pullet out of me!

I just want to say thanks a lot for sending me on a workday shunning quest to find egg molds. Oh, I found lots on eBay, but I’m cheap so I’ve been searching all day for the best price I could possibly find. I want so very much to put bunny eggs and star eggs and car eggs and heart eggs in my boyfriend’s lunch box. Nevermind the fact that we don’t live together yet, I don’t make his lunches, and I don’t even know if he likes hard boiled eggs. :stuck_out_tongue:
I just spent the last hour in the Japanese online version of a dollar store. www.ichibankanusa.com I have a cart filled with stocking stuffers and including shipping is less than $20.

Great. Just great.

There went my afternoon! :mad:

:stuck_out_tongue:

That’s just fowl!

15

Don’t forget the egg molds! Hee! :smiley:

16

Hockey Monkey I see they have a Spam mold for some rice Spam finger food.

I hope your boyfriend likes the eggs. I hope you try dying them at some point.

17

That’s enough of all those puns. Beak quiet, will ya?

18

Don’t get cocky. That pun’s a little awkward; certainly nothing to crow about.

:wink:

Eggcellent OP!

Have you ever been in a room so quiet you could hear an egg crack?
