Wow! I'm sorry to hear about the icky egg situation but I'm glad your have a reliable broody momma!
Yeah, like I mentioned, it was really sad we lost an entire clutch of chicken eggs to a broken egg just recently. The momma didn't want to give up her gooped up eggs, even though they (and her) reeked. So we gave her a bath... All of the eggs were blatantly rotten (one even popped while I was moving).
We ended up buying her 10 babies at the feed store and she's happy as anything.
So it was sad to see our turkey momma possibly have the same issue. Though she already has hatched some and still has many clean eggs so hopefully all goes well
I'll report back to this thread if my goopy egg experiment works. They were definitely stinky but the peroxide definitely helped significantly and I sprayed them again last night. I'll candle them today as well.
