Can someone help, collected eggs and one was a very small one, when I cracked it open this was inside, any ideas what it is, it didnt look good
Looks like it might be what they call a lash or lash egg, Sometimes they come with an egg, sometimes they are just "laid" alone. They seem to think it is part of the lining of the hens reproductive system, often seems to happen with hens that are internal laying also. Old BYC thread on them and some links with other pics. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/473989/weird-egg-weird-clump-lash-graphic-pics http://www.pocketfarm.co.uk/an-egg-of-any-shape/ http://thehappyhens.wordpress.com/2013/06/12/lash-eggs-thank-goodness-theyre-rare/
