Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I have one particular chicken that does this pretty regularly. Long and kind of skinny, often with an odd texture on the end, sometimes with a weird constriction in the middle.

Also, you inspired me to post a pic of a tiny egg I got last week : https://lemmy.world/post/24677253

This is from a full grown 2.5 year old chicken that typically lays "normal" eggs... not sure why she laid one tiny one randomly.

Did I start a thing? Is this going to be Lemmy's version of the safe?

This is such an upgrade. Let the torrent of wonky egg posts carry me away.

Not as long as you deliver.

That's a double yolk at least. Maybe even a triple if that's possible.

Oh I never delivered. It was a double, and she had another double last week.

Had another girl that laid a tiny egg. Like a little bigger than a ping-pong ball. Barely had any yolk at all.

Updating months later in true reddit safe fashion 🤣

I used to go to this bar and grill that had soft boiled quail eggs wrapped in bacon on a skewer. Looked about that size, maybe even smaller. Now I’m hungry.
