Dr. Abernethy's Chicken Lays Gourd-Shaped Egg, July 25, 1924

Abernethy Chicken Lays a Queer Egg

A peculiarly-shaped egg was found in the chicken lot of Dr. J.F. Abernethy a few days ago. It can best be described by saying that it is gourd shape. It is oblong in shape with a little projection on the one end very much like a short handle on a gourd.

Dr. Abernethy stated that some time ago an egg was found within an egg, both shells being perfectly developed.
