Yolkless egg information


A yolkless egg is a small egg with no yolk, sometimes produced by a pullet that has only just started laying. These eggs are common and usually pose no harm.

The eggs can also be called fart eggs, cock eggs, fairy eggs, dwarf eggs, and witch eggs.[1][2][3] The name wind eggs is also sometimes used, but this term more often refers to eggs without a shell, or with a soft shell, and less often to eggs that are rotten or unfertilized.[4]
