My hen laid an egg the size of a duck's: on a table a meter high

Okay, so one of my hens decided today was the day for some serious fowl play. I found an egg the size of a duck's, laid on a table a meter high. A whole meter! My heart did a little cluck-skip when I saw that giant egg just sitting there, looking way too proud of itself. It weighs the same as a duck egg, too. That's a lot of pressure for a chicken. It makes you wonder if she was chickening out of the nesting box or just showing off. For anyone who's ever questioned their flock's logic, you're not alone.
