SAN FRANCISCO, Colombia -- A?farmer hopes his hen's enormous egg will make it into the record books.
The farmer's daughter got?a real surprise recently when she found the egg weighing?8.6 ounces, or about four times the normal weight of?an egg.
The farmer, Hernando Ni?o,?from the Cudinmarca region north of Bogatam, says he plans to?contact?Guinness?World Records as he's never seen in his 20 years of farming anything like what his 5-year-old hen, named Franciscana, laid.
"The egg will stay in a glass case for people to see and so it is preserved," Ni?o said.
