Ostrich eggs are 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter and can weigh up to 3 lbs.
Eggs are laid in a communal nest called a dump nest which can hold about 60 eggs at one time.
Males as well as females sit on the eggs until they hatch which can take 42 to 46 days.
Ostrich offspring are larger than any other bird baby. At birth chicks can be as big as chickens.

The egg of a parasite that still infects people today was found in the burial plot of a child who lived 6200 years ago in an ancient farming community.

#Coloring Easter eggs with Natural Dyes Fun Science Experiments Easter is the time of year when many of us do something special with our breakfast food.
In this experiment we are going to use science to color eggs using natural dyes. While using natural dyes is a bit more time consuming than those little tablets you buy at the store gathering
Coffee tea grape juice and red wine make interesting egg dyes. Plant materials from fruits vegetables and kitchen spices can also be used to make interesting dyes.
Experiment with leaving the eggs in the dye for different amounts of time. Put the mixture of plant material water
and allow the dye to cool before submerging your eggs. You may want to hard-boil the eggs first
and then submerge them in your chosen dye overnight. Alternatively you may want to try cooking the eggs by boiling them in your chosen dye.
You get richer colors when you allow the eggs to remain in the dye overnight.
If experimenting with your Easter eggs was interesting you may also want to experiment with using natural dyes to color cloth.
Use small test squares of white cotton or wool and experiment with different plant materials or even colored soils like yellow ochre or red clay.

Parrots typically lay two to eight eggs at one time. A parrot's egg needs 18 to 30 days of incubation before it can hatch so the parents take turns sitting on the eggs.

#Find A Blue Chicken Egg? Congrats, Your Chicken Has A Virushere in the U s. our eggs mostly come in two colors:
white and brown. But there are two breeds one in Chile and one in China that are known to lay blue eggs.
Yeah weird right? And a new study has figured out why that happens. The Araucana chicken from Chile and the Dongxiang and Lushi chickens from China (none of which are particularly common in North america) are known to lay pale-blue eggs.
This is rare for a chicken; while bird eggs can come in all sorts of colors and patterns chicken eggs are almost always white or brown.
So what's the deal? A new study found that a single gene called callee oocyan is responsible for the odd coloration of these blue chicken eggs.
But how did it get there? Turns out that these chickens have a high incidence of a particular retrovirus called EAV-HP. Retroviruses are a type of virus that integrates its own genetic data into the host in an unusual order.
Instead of transcribing DNA into RNA and then into protein retroviruses operate backwards retroviruses have RNA
This EAV-HP retrovirus is responsible for inserting that weird gene the one that turns the chicken eggs blue.
blue eggs are eaten widely and the Araucana in particular is a very popular exotic chicken breed.
But now you know why their eggs are blue! via Virology Blog I'm not sure

When cicadas lay eggs they use their proboscis to cut little slits in thin branches
and lay eggs in there. When the larvae hatch they simply plop down onto the ground bury themselves
and transplanted them into eggs that had their own genetic material removed. They then grew the eggs for a few days harvested the daughter cells that appeared
and created a cell line or a colony of cells that reproduces stably. The stem cells in the cell line could become several different types of adult cells just like natural stem cells.
Researchers previously showed they are able to transform adult skin cells directly into stem cells with no stop for a transfer into an egg along the way.
For them to do this like Dolly they had to start with a fertilized egg remove the undeveloped baby (killing it) then put in the DNA from the skin cell of another person.

You might find yourself growing a conscience about eating eggs or killing cockroaches if you follow the logic:
but they are using non-fertilized eggs for this process. Women get rid of unfertilized eggs naturally each month...
is considered that killing people too? Because by that logic they should have to make a baby out of every single egg.
Which is obviously not a very feasible idea. Stick an adult nucleus into an unfertilized egg and you now essentially have a fertilized egg.
It's how they made Dolly the sheep. It's viable enough. Kill that embryo

Which Came First, The Chicken Or The Egg? Chickens as a species became chickens through a long slow process of evolution.
And since that real-life official chicken came out of its own egg we can say that the egg came first.
Once again the egg takes precedence. Many characteristics of the modern avian egg namely an oblong asymmetrical shape and a hardened shell were in place before birds diverged from dinosaurs about 150 million years ago.
A lot of the traits that we see in bird eggs evolved prior to birds in theropod dinosaurs says Darla Zelenitsky of the University of Calgary.
Another key moment in the history of avian eggs occurred at least 150 million years before that
when a subset of four-limbed vertebrates evolved to produce amniotic eggs. The embryos within the eggs were surrounded by three fluid-filled membranes that provide nourishment protection
and a way to breathe. The earliest amniotic eggs contained large amounts of yolk says James R. Stewart a reproductive physiologist at East Tennessee State university.
You still see that in birds crocodilians and snakes he explains. Like other placental mammals we humans lost our yolk somewhere along the line
but our eggs still come with a vestigial yolk sac. Have a burning science question you'd like to see answered in our FYI section?
Email it to fyi@popsci. com. umm well then...shall I press on and ask Which came first the dinosaur or the egg?
Lets see if you can answer that. The genetic mechanism is the same for all life.
Sovereign individuals not governmentsbut before it was hatched that egg was a probabilistic uncertainty. So before hatching probability would tell you that egg hosts that protochicken and not the modern version.
Yes there us a chance of a mutation into a chicken but there is also a chance it mutates unto a dinosaur.
The probability function only collapses once the chicken is out of the egg. The question that concerns me more is did where the first chicken find its rooster?
I remember reading something about OC-17 being produced by the chicken to help form the egg shell.
Oh and for as the chicken and egg question Life came first and multiplied. But what IS a chicken?
So we see that a chicken came from an egg in each instance. Therefore an egg always comes before a chickeni watched a youtube video of Chris Langan answering this quesion the same waykillert
-I think youre wrong. The chicken one way or another can be grouped within a spectrum of dna.
Now it is possible that the egg wasnt genetically changed as an embryo to make it the chicken
So the egg still comes first. lol Just imagine if all life was created they must all have been alive on earth at the same time
Chickens lay chicken eggs. Fish lay fish eggs (if you can call it laying) so wouldn't neanderchickens lay neanderchicken eggs?
This is the problem with evolution (or the problem with our way of dividing species). At some point neanderchicken will have to lay a chicken egg
or a a chicken will have to hatch from a neanderchicken egg. Both seem kinda funky. And as was pointed out above by someone
I don't know once the first chicken hatched it would have to mate with a neanderchicken
which wouldn't result in a new species just a neanderchicken with chicken traits. Anyway my point is that the chicken would have to come first
since the egg whence it hatches wouldn't be a chicken egg by virtue of not being laid by a chicken.@
How do you explain the natural selection path that leads multicellular organisms to create compacted miniaturised versions of themselves like eggs and baby offsprings?
You wouldn't have a proto-chicken who lays an egg that'd be considered a chicken there'd be dozens
Every chicken and the egg that it lays are the same species. There is no dividing line at a single generation.
and reptile species that reproduced via eggs. Thus the egg existed long before the chicken.
It's odd to me how anyone denies biological evolution as a fact an obvious one at this point in time.
Now we raise them eat them and their eggs. Chicken came first. The Evolutionists say it is easier to believe the imaginary theory of a dead person which can't be proved
