While the common usage of the word "diameter" refers to a circle or sphere, which an egg clearly is not, the actual word is also defined to include non-circular items such as an egg - length from one side of an egg to the other of a line passing through the center. So even one egg, whether ostrich or hummingbird, has many different lengths of diameters.

Depends on the breed of chickens. My Ancona hen lays enormous eggs, including frequent doubles with two yolks, but little bantam hens lay teeny eggs. Chicken eggs are NOT standardized, despite what you might think when opening a carton of supermarket eggs. Those have all been sorted by size to look like each other. "Real" farmyard eggs come in all sizes.

This is an international website. We need to know if the egg is from an English falcon, an American Bald Eagle, a New Zealand kiwi, an Australian ostrich or a French chicken.

It depends on the radius. Each egg is a different size. Thats why when you go to the supermarket you can buy them A, AA or AAA or Jumbo. Because they are all individual sizes (unique) and graded accordinly.

11 answer and just nothing........I never saw so many smart people on the same page......."depends on the egg"......."many different sizes"......"each are different"......thanks, folks, to call us stupid.......
Even the rated "best answer": Judy wants absolutely calculate the diam. of the egg in its height, which is oval (???) why not in its width? which is perfectly round.
does the word "average" evoke something to you? i.e the average diameter of an A grade egg, on its largest width? or the average diam. of a jumbo egg?

Are you talking about an ostrich egg, emu egg, platypus egg, chicken egg...snake egg?? I'm sure there are variations of size even within the species.
