Village Hen Becomes Local Celebrity After Laying 'Cashew-shaped' Eggs in Karnataka
People have now begun flocking to Prashanth's house to have a look at the now-celebrity hen and her bunch of eggs.
Nature is absolutely wonderful. We get to see so many mind-boggling and unusual things that have no scientific reasoning.
Are you ready for a new mind boggler?
This time we bring you eggs! Now when it comes to eggs, we know they are oval-shaped. But seeing a cashew-shaped egg is quite an unusual affair.
This apparently has been happening for a few days now.

The owner of the chicken, Prashant noticed the unusual shape of the eggs laid by his chicken a few days back. Initially, when the chicken laid the unusual eggs, the owner waited a few days to check if it was by default. But the chicken kept laying cashew-shaped eggs for three consecutive days.
Prashant told News 18 that when the chicken laid eggs for three consecutive days, they took the pet to the vet. However, the vet told them that either there is some problem with the chicken's shell gland or there are worms in her reproductive organs.
Soon the news spread in the neighbourhood, amusing people of the vicinity. The pictures of the eggs are also being shared on social media platforms. People made the chicken a celebrity.
This is, however, not the first time an egg has become popular for being differently shaped. The owner of a grocery store in Pithapuram in the East Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh was surprised to see an egg that looked like a mango on Madhapuram Street.
To make sure he wasn't dreaming, he decided to compare the egg to a mango - Sathi Babu realised later that the egg in the mango shape was actually an egg. It was shaped exactly like the king of fruits.
The egg got so popular that the owner decided to showcase it in the yearly Ugadi festival.
