If you look at Tania's page for it you'll see that she says it's beefsteak shaped and if I enter Couillles D Taureau at Google, same as the RED Huevos, IMAGES that's also what you see.

With IMAGES put your mouse over the picture to see the origin of the picture and anything with semances as an origin is From France.

I said that the name was changed from Huevos to Couillies and said it was Robin, but I now remember that his name is Roland Robin.

All I ever got with it was beefsteak shaped ones as well, somtimes pleated, some times not.

Just curious but what does pendulous mean to you when describing a tomato shape for I haven't seen that word applied to tomato shape before, and why would you expect a pedulous shape for Huevos/Couilles?
