Ed Pownell, from Lambourn in Berkshire, shelled out £150 for the oddity and donated it to the Iuventas Foundation - a charity that provides mentoring, life coaching and mental health support to young people across Oxfordshire.
Roz Rapp, from the foundation, said: "We're delighted and thrilled the egg sold as it means we can continue to do what we are doing."
Ms Rapp explained the hen's egg was just one item in the auction for the charity and the total funds raised were £5,000.
