Country farm's last grey eggs (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moldova

'country' is the definition.
(I know that Moldova is a European country)

'farm's last grey eggs' is the wordplay.
'last' indicates one should take the final letters.
'grey' becomes 'old' (similar in meaning).
'eggs' becomes 'ova' (term for egg cells).
The last letter of 'farm' is 'm'.
'm'+'old'+'ova'='MOLDOVA'

(Another definition for moldova that I've seen is " European country".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
