The Happy EggThe Happy Egg

Our Barred Plymouth Rock chickens lay a brown egg.  The brown pigment isn't always spread evenly over the egg and often there are dark patches near the large end of the egg.

Here's an egg one of our chickens laid on August 6, 2000.  I was sorting the eggs collected that day, and was floored when I turned the egg and noticed the discoloration on the large end of the egg resembled a happy face.

These photos are NOT touched up!  Neither is the Egg!
