The odds of an egg like this appearing are 1/1 billion.
Chicken eggs are a familiar food in human life. Eggs are usually oval, with two heads of different sizes. But recently, a household in Tinh Tra town, Jiangsu province, China has harvested an egg with an extremely odd shape “going against the trend” .
The strange “ping-pong” egg was found in Jiangsu, China.
Eggs are about 4cm in diameter.
Previously, on eBay, there was an egg with a similar shape for sale for 480 pounds (~ 15 million VND).
In addition to the ivory white color like a regular egg, this egg is spherical, looking exactly like a … ping pong ball. Eggs are about 4cm in diameter.
It is known that if the mother hen is frightened at the right time of laying eggs, the laying time will be shortened and potentially produce “ping pong” eggs. Eggshells are mainly composed of calcium and phosphorus, if the time these two components combine together in the oviduct (the way the egg comes out) is shortened, the eggshell will not receive enough pressure to form a ping pong ball. The odds of having such an egg are 1/1 billion.
Previously, on eBay, there was an egg with a similar shape for sale for 480 pounds (~ 15 million VND). So this egg is also very likely to repeat or even break this expensive record.
