Found this in an egg today. It was in the fridge maybe a couple weeks old… what in the world is it? I’m completely grossed out

New baby pics! I’ll try to put them in the same order. They are about two weeks old now

So I ordered an ‘assorted egg color mix’ from hoovers. Thought it would be fun to post weekly picks and watch them grow and guess the ‘breed’ FYI I know they are all ‘hatchery breeds’ that are just fancy names for Easter egger mixes, but if anyone has some of these breeds grown out that looked...

Thank you

Yes it was whiter when I first noticed and cleaned her up, but no smell at that time and vent looked healthy when washed

I’ve cleaned her up twice. She’s clean now, just did it about an hour ago. It was whiter the first go around last week. Not anymore. No bad smell….

Help me out here guys! She’s been isolated, still eating and drinking great… poop still too loose and dirty vent. So I decided to wash her up again and check her over. When I picked her up she felt like she had really lost more weight! Got her washed up and while I was doing that some water...

Oh the speckles on that blue!

I agree. Easter eggers are just a brown/blue mix. Mine have the Mohawks too🥰 they used cream legbars as the blue egg gene contributors💕

I forgot to say because of the weather lately our yard and their run are a soggy mess right now so I didn’t know if that is causing a problem. No respiratory symptoms

I have an ISA brown that’s 4 years old this spring. She was not laying this winter (normal) and has not started to lay again yet… so not sure if she’s just not ready or if this is a symptom as well. A little less than a week ago I noticed she was not roosting, she was sleeping in a nesting box...
