Eggs - what size were they

I don't think this is a very good question. When I cook with eggs I use 
bantam eggs, chooks eggs or duck eggs as if they were interchangeable, 
just different sizes. (I am waiting for somebody to have an excess f 
goose eggs - after discovering how good omelettes are with duck eggs ;)
I m ust admit that i have had harboiled quail eggs, but have never 
bothered trying to make a cake with them. But I suspect that a similar 
rule would apply - eggs is eggs...
On the other hand, the rlated question about chickes is still a good one.

when did people start making sweet pastry in europe?

When do the earliest medieval european cookbooks appear?
