Alison Greene, an egg handler on Fenton Farm, near the Somerset border, identified the rarity before Christmas and now plans to send it to auction.

Ms Greene said she hopes to achieve a similar sum at an Exeter auction in March with proceeds going to the “incredible” Devon ***** Crisis charity.

‘Elon Musk hasn’t got a round egg has he?

The 57-year-old said she has worked at the Devon farm for three years, handling more than 42 million eggs, and had never found a round one before.

Discussing the moment she found the egg, she said: “It was really surprising because they roll in a specific way and this one just didn’t – it just stood out.

“It’s now something that nobody else has. Elon Musk hasn’t got a round egg has he?

She added: “Hopefully, it will sell for a lot of money.”
