Barely bigger than a 5p coin, it measures just 0.9 inches (2.5cm) long, has a diameter of 0.79 inches (2cm) through its widest part and weighs 0.26oz (7.3g).
Itâs interesting how eggs from individual hens of the same breed can vary in size and eggs from the same hen can also vary depending on the beginning and end of her season. An established hen will invariably start her season with a small sized egg but the eggs get bigger as the summer progresses.hese hens may lay small eggs for their first few months. However, I find that if my hens come into lay a little later, for example at 25 weeks, the eggs tend to immediately be quite big, which is a bit of a bonus! It is thought that chickens may find it painful and stressful to lay big eggs.
