Monday Mystery

Euan took the above photograph this morning.  We were both amazed when we went to collect our three eggs this morning.  I do not know how this happened?  It definitely is not an April Fool.  Somebody has laid a pure white egg.  I have done a bit of research on the internet and read it can happen rarely.  It can happen as the result of the hen having a shock or trauma.  I do not know what could have caused this.  Usually white hens lay white eggs, brown eggs lay brown eggs, all of our eggs have been brown apart from this bright white egg.  All three girls look well enough today and are running around in the sunshine as usual.  When they first started to lay we got double yolkers, occasionally we get a 'Wobbly' soft shelled egg, the shell is soft and squishy but the egg inside is fine.  I haven't cracked the white egg yet so I don't know if it is 'normal' inside.  How strange, I just had to share it.
