Thanks, odd thread of comments....didn't really see any conclusion, feedback from original poster.
Yea some of it did sound a little off. I also found another byc thread asking about "mooshy" boiled egg whites, that seemed to draw no conclusion, though I didn't finish reading it because I was cooking dinner. if you search for it, spell it "mooshy" not mushy lolThanks, odd thread of comments....didn't really see any conclusion, feedback from original poster.
And not sure I buy this, sounds more like a freshness/grading test.
If you look up grading eggs they measure the height of the thicker albumen.
"If you crack a fresh egg and it sprawls on the dish (as opposed to hold tall), you're looking at an egg from a chicken that didn't eat many insects/larvae. This may be expected as at this time of the year (northern hemisphere) insects aren't very active."

Eggs are fresh. 1or 2 days old. Shells are nice and thick. Hens are 6 months old. When scrambled the eggs are delicious. Only problem is boiling them. The white is mooshy like it has too much water in it. Hens eat Purina pellet food. Get fresh water ever day or so.OK I see 2 possibilities.
1. old egg
2. frozen egg.
How fresh was the egg? Any chance the egg was in a super cold spot in the fridge, where it may have froze? you wouldn't have been able to tell unless you cracked it open while raw.
Makes me want to do an experiment on boiling frozen eggs
