From the website:

A hen lays a mini egg on November 20 at Mr. Chen’s home in Zhoukou, Central China’s Henan Province. The red-shell egg is just 1.3 centimetres long and 1 centimetre wide.

    Aww… I know it couldn’t hatch, but wouldn’t it be incredible if it did? Would you call the result a “chic-let”? *cue canned laughter*

    Imagine a omelette made of these… 30 egg omelette?

    I thought these sorts of things are common for newly egg-laying hens? Or that immature hens also lay small egs?

    emmh… It’s not weird. We had chicken at home and some times this happen. Don’t know why but it happens. I had two or three in small bottles on a shelter ^g^
