I have three Muscovy hens and one drake in my hen house with a bunch of chickens of a variety of breeds. I *believe* that all of my hens are colored egg layers (brown or blue) and recently I have been getting some odd shaped (more oblong than oval, if that makes sense, with a more pointed tip) eggs that are white with heavy reddish speckling. Are these Muscovy eggs, or has another type of hen recently reached laying age?
Also, when I go to crack these eggs, the membrane beneath the shell is very, very tough--much stronger than 90% of the chicken eggs we've had.
Thanks!
