Equipment for grading eggs by weight wherein a balance beam is provided with an egg support on which an egg to be weighed is deposited by egg moving means. Means are located adjacent and above the egg support in position to be engaged by an egg deposited on the support and serve to stabilize and position the egg with respect to the balance beam so as to render the weighing operation more accurate and permit increased speed in operation of the equipment. The egg stabilizing means also cooperates with egg discharging means located below the egg support to aid in discharging an egg from the egg support when the balance beam is tilted.
