Becky,
The first year I grew the egg gourd they were about twice as big
as a chicken's egg, but they were from a package of mixed ornamental
gourd seeds and I planted a lot of seeds in a small place.
Since then, with better care, my egg gourds come out about the
size of the goose egg. I think it had to do with better care of
the plants when growing.
