When my first Olive Egger started laying, she laid this egg with big spots on it. I wanted to blow it out... but I think it got eaten

And my dad has a habit of writing dates on even the prettiest eggs with permanent marker!

Photo of more of the OE’s eggs. The pink one’s from my Australorp hen. I tried to post a video I have of her but it wouldn’t load...

NO DAD! No permanent marker!
I use pencil and if it's one I know I want to save the shell, put it somewhere else. Not in with the other to be eaten eggs.

Hahaha yep pencil’s a better idea.
I’m much more careful now
Oh and I’ve got a fairy egg that I’m going to save to be blown out... haha don’t think that’s ones at risk
