Eggs are sized based on weight to ensure a consistent product when you buy a carton.
Though eggs in the same carton may look different in size, they will all fall within a similar weight range.
The weight ranges for eggs are as follows:
- Peewee: less than 42 grams
- Small: 42-48 grams
- Medium: 49-55 grams
- Large: 56-62 grams
- Extra Large: 63-69 grams
- Jumbo: 70 grams or more
