As far as any one can tell, the smallest bird egg in the world was laid on October 5, 1998 by a posture canary of the German Crested variety. The tiny egg measured .275 inches in length or 7 mm, was .2 inches in diameter or 5.25 mm, and only weighed .0009 ounces or .027 g.

The proud owner of the bird and the smallest bird egg is M.J. Rijck who calls Heijen, the Netherlands home.
