Moldy eggshell?

[Melodychick]

Have you candled the eggs?
I'm betting they are porous in that area.

Does the 'mold' wash off?
If they look fine inside I'd not worry about eating them,
just give a good wash before opening to eat.

I just went and candled the one she laid yesterday. It is not moldy looking yet, but there is a distinct line around the shell at the end where the mold (if that’s what it is) usually occurs. I will mark the lay date on the eggshell and see how long before the mold occurs. The eggs look fine inside, but the mold doesn’t wash off with plain water, and I haven’t thought to see if it is noticeable on the inside of the shell. I have eaten her eggs pre mold, but was worried that any bacteria may be in the egg. Thanks for your input
