A farmer in India is surprised after one of his hens laid a bright blue egg. This is a very rare event, and the news has quickly spread, making everyone curious.

The hen belongs to a farmer named Syed Noor, who bought it two years ago. He said all his hens eat the same food and usually lay normal white or yellowish eggs. "This is the first time I have ever seen a blue egg," he said. He has kept the egg safely to show everyone.

As the news spread, many villagers came to Syed Noor's house to see the unique blue egg. Even local animal experts were surprised by the discovery.

  • Experts believe it's because of a special pigment called 'biliverdin' that is sometimes found in hens. This pigment can cause a different color in the eggshell.

  • One expert, Dr. Raghu Nayak, also said that genetic changes or even a change in the hen's diet could be the reason for the unusual color.

While greenish eggs are sometimes seen, a blue one is extremely rare. According to experts, blue eggs are usually laid by special breeds of chickens, like the Araucana from Chile.

Syed Noor took a photo of the egg, and since then, the story has been shared by local media, getting a lot of attention. People on the internet are amazed by this strange and beautiful egg.
