I ordered 12 eggs off Ebay on June 3. They arrived last Friday (the 7th). I let them sit in a cool place all day and put them in the incubator last night. I did notice that one of the eggs looked really dark inside when I candled them yesterday and it smelled funny but I thought maybe the yolk was scrambled and the smell might be the little bit of poop it had on it. Anyway, I was check the temp earlier and noticed my incubator smelled. I pulled the eggs out and noticed the dark egg had some liquid oozing out of some of the pores. It smelled REALLY bad so I broke it open. I added a pic of it. The ad said "I collect at least 2 times a day, and rotate daily. Eggs will not be over 2 days old when shipping (Usually I collect and ship the same day). It usually only takes 2 days for you to receive the eggs, we ship Priority mail. " So is that a rotten egg and is it possible it could had rotted while in transit? She said the eggs wouldn't be more than 2 days old but I've never had an egg rot that fast. As for the rest of the eggs, one was broken when it arrived but wasn't fertile anyway, one has sappy spots, and the rest look porous with the majority having detached air cells. Should I contact the seller about the bad egg. I really think it had to have been bad when the shipped it but I would like other opinions
**I paid immediately after the sell ended so the eggs wouldn't sit around.
