robskyd Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Hi, We've had a couple of eggs that have had white(ish) yolks. Is this ok? The egg's from Doris who seems really healthy in every way? Has anyone else encountered thi before? Thanks in advance.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Never heard of it. Do you have any pictures, I'd be interested to see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenlover Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Dont know if this will help but i can only try,,,here goes, if she is a young bird and these are her first eggs, it is totally normal, produced before her laying mechanism is fully geared up, if she is a mature hen then this could be a 'wind' egg that occurs when a bit of reproductive tissue breaks away , stimulating the egg-producing glands to treat it like a yolk and wrap it in albumen, membranes and shell as it travels through the egg tube. If not then maybe she just ate too much white corn and its affected the colour of her yolk!! probally more likely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
