AJuff Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I found this in on the roosting bar today!!! It's a hard egg completely covered with with a rubber like substance. I think it's come from one of the marans because of it's colour, she must be the one who has been passing kormas for two days? What's going on?? help!!!!!

peggotty Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Yum, yum . Did you poach or fry it . Mind you, seeing the horrors that my hens love to munch on throughout the day, I think this 'egg' is more like what you'd expect them to produce!

katieadams Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Euw !! I'm sure I read on here somewhere they can sometimes lay an egg within an egg, maybe it's that kind of thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJuff Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 Well I washed it and peeled away the layer of YUK. It was like a latex glove!! Inside the egg was normal but we haven't the stomach to eat it!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Has she laid another one since? It looks a bit like a normal egg, then with a softy type shell encasing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 wonder if its covered in a lash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJuff Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 Jules, that's what I wondered but it was totally encased in it, not just covered in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
