A perfectly round egg, described as 'one in a billion', was auctioned for hundreds of dollars.

It's not every day that you hear about someone spending a large sum of money on an egg, but that's exactly what happened when an English man shelled out £200 for a perfectly round one. This unique egg was first discovered by a woman in Scotland, who stumbled upon it while shopping at her local Asda supermarket in the town of Ayr. Intrigued by its spherical shape, she decided to donate it to the Iuventas Foundation, an English youth charity that regularly holds fundraisers.

After receiving the egg, the Iuventas Foundation wasted no time in putting it up for auction. On December 11, the egg was finally purchased by Ed Pownall, from Lambourn, Berkshire, who was willing to pay the hefty price tag for this one-of-a-kind item. In an interview with the BBC, Pownall expressed that he believed it was "money well spent." And he's not wrong - the chances of a chicken laying a perfectly round egg are estimated to be 1-in-1 billion.

Interestingly, this is not the first time a perfectly round chicken's egg has been discovered. In recent years, there have been several similar findings in Australia, including one at an Inner-Melbourne Woolworths. It just goes to show that sometimes nature can surprise us with its unique creations.

In other news, 12 bodies were found at a ski lodge in a grisly discovery. However, authorities have determined that there was no sign of violence involved. This tragic event has left many people wondering about the circumstances surrounding the deaths.
