Officially the most disgusting thing to ever come out of one of my chickens butts...

Found this in a nesting box today under a broody. I currently have 8 broodies so I thought maybe BF, who was home all day, had possibly fed the broodies some hush puppies in their nesting boxes and just maybe one of those crazy hormonal biddies decided to try and hatch it.

He did not.

This had to have been laid today by one of my non-broody biddies.













It looks like "meat" that was packaged in a nice soft shelled egg. With chunks. It didn't smell, yet.

Anyone ever see anything like this before???

That is "Lash." Here's a link with pics:

Thank you, Dawg. You are always a source of good information, and quickly!

Lol. That's it. I've seen that before. Lash or a piece of corned beef hash?

For continuity, I found another lash today.





And of course I cut it open. It reminds me of chicken cordon bleu. Although only visually, not olfactory wise.




I think this is now officially the most disgusting thing to ever come out of my chicken's butts.

I do hope they don't try to top this.

The one part kinda reminded me of sushi (octopus).

Nice! Looks really neat when cut open. Bet it didn't smell that way tho!

It smelled a bit like warm bologna with a slightly off hint of rot.

NICE!!! Kind of reminds me of a kidney. I bet it smells like a preserved kidney from the cat I had to disect in High School
