“巨无霸”鸡蛋
2003年05月13日11:43:08 新快报 吉栩渔


  A pensioner has told of her surprise after finding a massive egg in her chicken run.

  Freda Smith, 73, of Butley, Suffolk, believes one of her 10 chickens produced the egg, which weighs 7oz and has a diameter of 8in. However, some neighbours believe the pensioner could have been the victim of hoaxers, as the large egg is the same colour and size as those laid by geese.

  One source said: "I think this is could be a prank. It's pretty easy to get your hands on a goose egg at this time of year and it looks remarkably like one."

  "I found it in the run on Wednesday morning," said Mrs Smith, a retired school cook. "I couldn't believe it. The eggs we normally get are about 2oz. We've had the odd one with a double yolk before but nothing like this. I have no idea which one of them laid it." She added: "It's not a record. The Guinness Book of Records says the biggest chicken egg they know of weighed 12oz. But I don't know anyone whose seen anything like it before. "We'll have to eat it eventually or it will go off. Goodness knows how many yolks there'll be. We'll need a lot of toast."

  73岁的弗雷达·史密斯近日在自己的养鸡场里发现了一只巨无霸“鸡蛋”,蛋重7盎司,直径达7到英寸。然而,史密斯的一些邻居说她可能被骗了,因为那蛋的颜色和大小就跟鹅蛋一样。有人说:“我想这是个恶作剧。这年头弄一只鹅蛋根本不难。那只蛋看起来就非常像鹅蛋。”

  史密斯说,这也不算是什么纪录,因为“《吉尼斯纪录大全》里记载的最重的鸡蛋是12盎司”。史密斯最后决定吃掉这只鸡蛋,“不然它很快会变坏的,我们还要烤很多面包呢”。
