➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

I went out side and the wind blew some dirt on the egg.
I still ate it.

And...the brown egg's shell was blue on the inside!

I have an olive Easter egger quail!

Yesterday morning I was out shirtless since I had to deal with a skunk and the fewer clothes I wear, the less clothes I have to wash to get rid of the smell.

You poor thing. Skunk's spray has to be one of the nastiest smells ever.
Once my dogs thought it would be fun to play with a skunk. I made the mistake of opening the window to yell at them to quit playing. Immediately started gagging.

I kid I kid.
They better be able to handle it.

I think they did fine with my heat...my cold is not really cold.
I might really worry if it gets closer to freezing weather this year though.

You are silly. My neighbour keeps his quail outside year round without heat.

That is normal coloration for the inside shell. The darkness of the outer shell is from overpigmentation since they just started laying

Only the brownish egg had the blueish color on the inside.

I hear yah....it went from 80 + all week (and last night) to serious wind and 50 + degree temps this morning! This weekend is supposed to be cold. The hens do better when it's cooler....I hate seeing them pant in the heat and humidity.
