Hen Lays 5 Giant Eggs, So Confused Couple Grabs One And Cracks It Open

Gary Ashmore, founding an incredibly large egg under one of his hens, named Gertrude.

But this isn’t the first time Gertrude has produced an unusually large egg. She’s done this 5 other times!

This time, Gary wanted to show everyone exactly what was inside one of those eggs. On camera, he carefully cracked and peeled it open. You can clearly see the yolk inside, but there’s a funny-looking red blob pushing up against it.

He pours out the yolk, and it’s clear what’s left at the bottom: it’s another egg!

Gary explains that Gertrude has had no issue pushing out these extra large eggs, and that she’s been perfectly healthy since they started appearing. This is rare enough, but not unheard of. Although, Gertrude must be one lucky hen because of all the times it’s happened to her!

Gary also notes that the jumbo-sized eggs don’t taste any different than regular-sized ones.
