Weird Eggs Redoux


Clockwise from top right: a more or less regular egg, a freakin' gigantic egg which is most likely a double-yolker, and a teeny-tiny pretty little light blue fairy egg. Right now I also have weird long skinny blue eggs which are pointy at both ends and a purple-freckled egg.

  3. I saw an interesting thing on the Animal Planet the other day:

    Ground nesting birds tend to have rounder eggs, so that they can be rolled easily.

    Cliff nesting birds tend to have more conical eggs, so that if they roll, they just roll in little circles and don't smash. Cool, huh?

    Double yolked eggs are still the clear seed of Satan. When I find one, I throw out the whole carton.
