Hello everyone! I did my nightly coop examination and was horrified to come face to face with the following object:



I was really wondering what it was since it kinda resembled a piece of pasta. LOL! Anyways, I broke it open:



It smelled like boiled chicken. To say the least, it was very strange. I am assuming that it was passed by a hen that is about 3 1/2 years old. None of my ladies are acting weird. Does anyone have any ideas??

Thanks in advance!

That is a lash egg, which is a product of internal laying. If you do a search at the top of the page, you will find many pictures of similar lash eggs.
