A rapid data-collection system for determining egg weight and specific gravity is described. The method links a microcomputer and an electronic balance to facilitate specific gravity determination by the displaced water (CADW) or Archimedes' method. Measurements obtained by this technique were compared with those determined by the saline flotation method. Repeatability measures showed both methods to be relatively precise. The CADW method was faster and reduced opportunities for clerical error.
