Snoxy Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Hi I found a mystery egg in one of the nest boxes today...I haven't seen one this colour before...it is lovely and shiny and cream. Can the colour of eggs change when hens have been laying for a few weeks or could it be that Gertrude (Magpie) isn't sterile after all? I am baffled...what do you think?
