Bizarre Question??

I've never heard of it, and we just did deviled eggs last night.

 

From the inside or outside of the shell?

 

Weird, never seen that - perhaps the "bloom" or whatever its called....

 

I have never seen that either,,,,,it was after you boiled them?

 

I think it is the brown coating on the egg. I did a science experiment for the kids... put an egg in vinegar and let it sit. The egg shell disolves and leaves the rest of the egg intact. Anyway, while the egg was in the vinegar all of the brown coloring came off and there was a white egg shell underneath.

Take care,

Some of the brown eggs I get from my hens have brown speckles on the surface of the shell that will wash off if I scrub at them.

They are still brown eggs underneath and I don't know what the spots are just that they appear to be normal and don't cause harm the either hens or people.

 

Brown egg layers deposit a brown membrane over the eggs as they lay. It adds to the brown color of the egg. Isn't it interesting?
