As a child my mum had a poultry farm made of local (native) fowls.On more than one occasion I have seen a matured cock lay an egg: the egg is the size of a bird's(say pigeon) egg,in one of the time I saw it came out the cocks anus together with faeces.I remember asking my agriculture Teacher back in secondary school but he said it's not possible and as I scientist (Biochemist) I now it's not possible since a cock has no reproductive system for egg formation but at the same time I can't deny that I haven't seen this happen,cos I did saw it with my very eyes come out of the cock. I was discussing with a friend and he said in Tiv (of Benue state) culture,the egg has spiritual significant as native doctors equate it to the life of a man and used it in exchange for human life. In Bekwarra(of Cross River) culture this egg is known as "ate igbatorobi".I know this may sound funny but I have witnessed this happen. Anyone has seen this phenomenon before? |

Roosters don’t lay egg. I was sold that myth when I was young. I observed for long how it would happen. Nothing like that ever happened |

I am not contradicting myself.I am only placing side by side my experience with the knowledge I acquired in class.For those who think I saw a hen it's not true,i actually look after these chicken myself so I see it crow even after that time.My mum and siblings also saw it. I Google this and realised it's a rare phenomenon but no scientific explanation to it,but I have seen it more than once 1StopRudeness: |
