That probably explains it since the eggs do have spots sometimes. Either way, I sure got a kick out of it!

Don't forget to post a photo when you get the chance -- we are all looking forward to seeing it.

Nope. I had another that had little purple colored specks and streaks but nonequite that large or intensely colored.
