Fish scales or fans?

If you hold it this way, it looks like fans, a bit.
But if you hold it this way, it looks like scales?

I liked the speckled egg shell, so I didn't want to cover it up, which is why I kept this design simple. But it feels a little too simple, don't you agree? I feel I need to add something...

If you're curious about the different colors of eggshell: these eggs are from my mother's pet chickens. She has many different kinds, and each breed of chicken has an "egg color". The reason you often see only white eggs in the grocery is because those eggs come from Leghorn hens. Leghorn hens are very efficient egg layers, not needing a lot of food because they are a naturally skinny chicken (I'm so jealous) but laying nice, large eggs. Which also happen to be white. That makes them ideal for egg producers.



But it was still delicious.
