Samples were purchased from traders in the Baledono market, Kongsi market and Suronegaran Market, as many as 8 samples each. The observed variables were egg length, egg width, egg index, egg volume, egg weight, type of weight, height albumen, albumen width, albumen index, haugh unit, yolk colour, yolk height, yolk index, weight of yolks, air cavities high, shells thickness and weight of shell (g). The results of this study showed an egg length of 52.41 ± 0.59 (mm), egg width 40.22 ± 0.43 (mm), egg index 76.87 ± 0.89 (mm), egg volume 40.48 ± 0.82 (ml), egg weight 42.90 ± 0.87 (g), specific weight 1.06 ± 0.00, albumen height 0.51 ± 0.19 (mm), albumen width 7.71 ± 0, 19 (mm), albumen index 0.07 ± 0.03, haugh unit 77.09 ± 1.66, egg yolk colour 9.46 ± 0.31, egg yolk height 15.34 ± 0.27 (mm), egg yolk width 43.84 ± 0.67 (mm), egg yolk index 0.35 ± 0.01, egg yolk weight 16.63 ± 0.53 (g), air cavity height 3.38 ± 0.23 (mm), skin thickness 0.42 ± 0.02 (mm), and Shell Weight 3.39 ± 0.07 (g).
