When I go to the farmer, I usually buy a box of the undersized eggs because I don't want those chickens to feel bad.

Trainee chickens.

Like, maybe they just had a bad winter or they had a headache, or something.

Chickens are people, KWIM?

Just spit balling here as a male but wouldn't the chickens feel relieved if an egg turns out to be smaller than normal? 🤔

Yes, but that performance anxiety, tho.

as i understand it, big eggs come from older chooks, they are physically bigger and their insides are finished growing

Yeah, and also depends upon how many hours of sunlight they've gotten. All the eggs are jumbo in the summer .

ah, probably burning the fat to stay warm so not available to make yolks
