How wide is a chicken egg?

The width of a chicken egg can vary, but it's generally around 2 inches (5 cm).

Here are some factors that influence the width:

* Breed of chicken: Different breeds lay eggs of different sizes.

* Age of hen: Younger hens tend to lay smaller eggs.

* Diet: A hen's diet can affect the size of her eggs.

* Individual variation: Even within the same breed, there can be variations in egg size.

So, while 2 inches is a good general estimate, the actual width of a chicken egg can be slightly smaller or larger depending on these factors.
