When an Australian farmer went to pick up his chickens’ daily eggs, he had the shock of his life.
Three times the size of a typical egg and weighing 6.2 ounces, a huge egg had been deposited by one of his hens.
A free-range chicken at Stockman’s Eggs on the Atherton Tablelands in north Queensland laid the babushka egg.
The company’s owner, Scott Stockman, shared a picture of the amazing find he and his employees made at the farm.
It appears really strange when compared to an ordinary-sized egg, but what was possibly even stranger was what they discovered after they cracked the egg.
There was another egg, properly formed, inside the egg.
“Having two perfectly formed eggs together is just incredible,” Scott told ABC News Australia.
It was the first of its kind, according to a veterinary sciences expert from Charles Sturt University.
According to Associate Professor Raf Freire, the hen must have normally developed an egg but for some reason chose not to lay it.
Then, he told ABC News, “instead of that egg being laid, as it usually is, what’s happened is that another ovum has been released.”
That has fallen, and the chicken has inexplicably chosen to form a shell around both the egg from the day before and the recently fallen ovum.
Although the experts said that eating the egg would have been safe, Scott told ABC News that they receive 50,000 eggs per day and therefore “didn’t bother eating it.”
Quite incredible, don’t you think? If you thought this story was amazing too, tell your friends about it on Facebook!
A man bought an old storage unit that was worth $7,500,000 for just $500, but he had to give back a lot of the money because of an unfortunate reason.
Money makes the world go round, as the old saying goes.
We could all use a little extra money, but imagine becoming a millionaire overnight! Maybe you find a family treasure hiding in your closet that could make you a lot of money.
For one man, buying a storage unit changed his life completely.
According to Dan Dotson, a star from the show Storage Wars and an auctioneer, a client bought a storage unit that was thought to be abandoned for just $500. If a storage unit hasn’t been paid for three months in a row, it can be auctioned off—something fans of the show already know.
On the show, people buy random storage units hoping to find something valuable inside.
One man opened his newly bought unit and found another safe inside, which had an incredible $7,500,000 in cash!
Dan Dotson shared this amazing story in a 2018 YouTube video. He explained that the man didn’t get to keep all the money because of an unfortunate situation.
In the three-minute video, Dan mentioned that a woman approached him at an event and said a family friend had bought a storage unit he auctioned off. Everyone was shocked to hear about the piles of cash inside.
The new owners of the unit then received a surprise call from the original owner’s lawyer, who offered them $600,000 to return the unit, cash included. They even raised the offer to $1.2 million!
The new owners chose to return the unit and the money, which left them with a profit of $1,199,500. Not a bad deal!
Dan believed that returning the cash was the right choice because they didn’t know where the money had come from in the first place.
This unusual story led to a lot of discussion in the YouTube comments, where people shared their opinions on what they would have done.
One person asked, “If there was that much money in the safe, why did they stop paying for the unit?”
Another commenter said, “I’d take their offer and be on my way, thanking the good Lord for the blessing,” while someone else agreed, “Take the offer. It’s the right thing to do.”
A fourth person suggested, “Keep the money and run. I wouldn’t have told anyone in the first place.”
Another commenter added, “I couldn’t sleep at night knowing my money was just sitting in a locker. And is that money taxable? If it is, I’d be gone—new name, new life with $7 million!”
