Hybrid Hen Lays Six Ounce Egg To find a six ounce egg, measuring 9 1/4 by 7 1/2 inches on the concrete barn floor of the A. M. Peterson farm on Route 3, Eau Claire, Tuesday, was what surprised John Hestekin, who works for Mr. Peterson, as he was going about his regular barn work. John was so surprised to see the big wrinkled egg on the floor that he caught the only hen nearby and rushed her to the family scale. She weighed 7 pounds and is one of the newly bred Hybrids, half grey Plymouth Rock and half New Hampshire Red. The same day Mr. Peterson found an egg weighing four ounces and measuring 6 1/2 by 8 1/8 inches. A normal egg weighs about two ounces or less. +++++++++++++ Did you measure your eggs this morning before you ate them? tee hee! -- Nance
