A perfectly round egg has raised an incredible £310 for charity so far.

The extremely rare egg was laid by one of Kim Broughton’s hens in Steeple Road, Latchingdon.

Fortunately, Mrs Broughton did not turn the money-spinning egg into a pancake and instead put it on ebay to raise funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

The egg has received at least 56 bids and counting.

Housewife Mrs Broughton said: “It’s unbelievable.

“I’m so pleased."
