A regular chicken egg can approximately hold around 4 lbs. Not much, but it is depending on the chicken and it's health about how the egg shell will produce. Some chickens don't get enough rocks or egg shells to eat and they may lay an egg without a shell. Happened with me before and I learned that they need to eat small rocks and/or crushed egg shells that were heated. If they get enough of these, the shell will come out perfect. :) Hope this helps...
well,they are but the can be mean sometimes.but if you are looking for egg layers the EE chicken is a good way to go.they lay medium sized eggs but they lay everyday.i know because i have one.but the EE chickens are not meat chickens so i would not have them for any dinner of mine lol:].i love my eggs i get from that chicken.but if you are looking for a nice chicken this is not the way to go.but there eggs.....they are amazing.
No. The size and shape of an egg does not determine the gender of the potential chick inside the egg. There is absolutely no way to determine gender until the embryo is fully formed and hatched.
Fertility lasts about a week, after that the odds are low that the egg will hatch. They should be stored at room temperature (NEVER refrigerated) with the small end pointing down.
Hens are much older than the chickens grown for meat. The older the animal is when slaughtered, the tougher the meat. Poulets or capons for meat production usually are slaughtered at around six weeks to three months of age. Hens are slaughtered for stew and soup at the end of their prime breeding age, around one and a half years for egg layers, or 2 years for hens that produce eggs for meat birds.
In my experience if the chicken laid an egg on a house which way would it roll it would have to depend if the chicken is facing you or its backwards. So if the chicken was facing you the egg would roll left. If the chicken was the other way it would probably go right.

a chicken egg is much stronger than any other egg because the way it is is token care of and fertilized
Buttermilk is often used as a marinade or as a tenderizing agent for chicken. Personally, I like to fry chicken using buttermilk instead of egg. I love the taste, its much crunchier, I find it so superior to an egg batter in every way.
The same way you tell in the U.S. A chicken is a chicken anywhere they are.
1. If no rooster is present, then there is no way the egg will be fertilised, so it will not have a chick in it. 2. If the egg is freshly laid, and removed immediately and refrigerated, it will not have a chick in it.
The chicken came before the egg through evolution. The chicken could have been born through an egg, or the same way humans are born. The first chicken was born from two parents that were NOT chickens. The offspring of the two parents had a mutation which led to the first chicken.
The easiest and most delicious way I've found to make fried chicken is to dip the raw chicken in egg before rolling it in flour. The egg makes the flour stick to the chicken nicely and it has a great flavor after it's fried.
I tend to just weight the goose egg for cakes and do the equivalent weight in flour, butter and sugar; however you could weigh a chicken egg and goose egg and work it out that way?
There is no way to stop a chicken from laying eggs; It's nature's way.
FACT: The egg did come first. & no one, or no thing laid the egg. God put it on this earth just like he put you and I on here.Answer:Evolution works in such a way that the traits leading up to "chicken -ness" can be present in both parents without them being (technically) chickens. When they mate the genes can recombine to provide the offspring (in the egg) with all the genes to be a chicken. So the parents are not technically chickens, the embryo is a chicken and grows to be a chicken. The chicken comes first. Yes this means the egg the first chicken comes from is not a chicken's egg. All eggs from the first chicken are then chicken's eggs.
The same way you eat an ostrich egg.
You would eat the chicken because it uses up energy and does n't transmit much energy into the chiken egg- so it is the most economical way :)
