 A "One in a billion" flawless round egg could sell for thousands of dollars



A perfectly round "one-in-a-billion egg," which is very uncommon and might be worth thousands of dollars, was found at a Melbourne supermarket.

There are many things whose high value is understandable, like an automobile, whose technical intricacy seems almost miraculous, or a painstakingly made piece of art that demonstrates extraordinary expertise. Alternately, an item's extraordinary rarity may account for its high cost.

Some items, though, seem to fetch astronomical prices in dubious ways. One such object is an egg that, by an accident of chance, takes on a fully spherical shape rather than the more typical oval one. It is undoubtedly fascinating and generates the response "Huh, cool." However, spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars to own such an egg can be viewed as an ostentatious display of money.

The issue of what one would really do with it emerges in the real world. Why would it spoil? However, there seems to be a market for eggs in strange forms, which is always surprising us!

The non-ovoid egg was discovered by newsreader Jacqueline Felgate, who said, "I thought I'd share this eggcellent find. We discovered a spherical egg in our egg carton, and after a short Google search, we learned that this is a one-in-a-billion event. The latest egg recovered was sold for nearly $1,400, and just one in a billion eggs are actually round.

It is feasible to preserve eggs, or more precisely, their shells, despite the fact that many people may be unsure about the practical use for such an egg. For the purpose of preserving wild bird eggs, museums frequently adopt this preservation procedure. Larger eggs can be blown out by poking tiny holes at either end and delicately extracting the yolk by gently scrambling it. However, smaller eggs don't require any further preparation to spontaneously dry out in an atmosphere that is adequately dry.



Eggs from the extinct Elephant Bird are some of the most expensive in the world. These eggs, which have a lifespan of up to 800 years and are 200 times larger than chicken eggs, are very huge. That would provide a really substantial omelette.

The Elephant Bird was a native of Madagascar and is said to have stood roughly 10 feet tall and weighed more than 440 kilogrammes until it was hunted to extinction about 400 years ago. A healthy Elephant Bird egg fetched £66,675 at Christie's auction house in 2013.


Dinosaur eggs, on the other hand, can sell for up to £1,600 for a really rare specimen.

Unbelievable money for such amazing discoveries!
