incubator ? : My eggs have foam coming out of them? what is this

[SugaryinMD]

I have some araucana eggs in my incubator. Last night I noticed little foam bubbles coming from the eggs...does anyone know what this means?

That sounds like they are about to explode. Do they smell bad? I would throw those out.

 

[SugaryinMD]

yes...ok...gross

Oh, yeah. That's definitely a bad sign.

Where are you in MD? We have Araucana just outside of DC in Northern VA.

OH!!!!! no!!!! Eww!

 

[redhen]

be very careful..they can explode on you when you pick them up... i've heard some horror stories..

 

[organicfoltzfamilyfarm]

I think I would have a heart attack if that happened to me.


EWWW
