One of our hens wasn't concentrating on the job at hand when she laid this egg.

About Me
I live with my husband on a small homestead in Northern Minnesota. Our daughter currently lives in a small cabin in the woods not too far from us.
Our place is located outside a small town and a two and a half hour's drive from the nearest big city. Trips to the city are infrequent, well-planned, and exhausting!
We currently raise chickens and have hives of honey bees. Raising some of our meat and most of our fruits and vegetables is a priority for us; so, along with our birds for meat and eggs, we have fruit trees, berry patches and a huge vegetable garden.
Quilting is my passion, and I could happily spend each day in my quilt studio if I weren't happily spending each day out in the garden. Good thing we have winters up here; Mother Nature helps keep my life balanced.

Just shows that everyone, even little hens, has an off-day sometimes!
Vera - So true! :o)
Bet that one was easier to lay. Watch her, she'll be teaching the others .....
DFW - Good point! Of course it would have been easier to lay. Smart little hen. ;o)
Ha ha ha ha! This picture and caption made me laugh out loud!
Thank you!
Anonymous - Glad you got a chuckle!
Ooo, so interesting. They occasionally come up with really weird shaped eggs!
Leigh - You know they do, but I don't think I've ever seen one this perfectly cylindrical.
Almost looks like the commercial companies have invented a more packable eff. How cute is that.
Granny Sue - Let's hope we never get to the point where the shape of eggs can be modified to that extent! :o)
