Given that eggs are sized by the yolk, I'm not entirely sure.
The Swedish eggs don't fit in normal containers, they practically fill your palm and they weight nearly what a goose egg does. The Khaki Campbells (the oddly pointed one) fall under the Jumbo size, Rhodies (brown) are standard chicken egg size. The Ameraucanas (green) aren't fully mature, so they are laying smaller eggs than they will at 1 year. The Hamburg egg is tiny, practically the size of a cock egg!
Beautiful. I grew up on Rhodie and Americauna eggs. I miss the delicious freshness. I wanted to have chickens, but it looks like it's going to be apartment/condo/townhouse living for me, so I'll live vicariously through my brother, who has chickens. When I'm crotchety, old and widowed I'll have a little house with some chickens and a goat. LOL.
