Semi-formed chick delivered-anyone see this before?

[ellenmg]

Yesterday, we found this where one of the girls sleeps. She has not been laying as was sickly for a while. There was no shell, and no white around it.

Strange. You sure that it is a chick?

 

[ellenmg]

Yes, it is her spot and I looked up chick embryology pics. And the skin was chicken skin. Bizarre.

It looks like a lash egg.

It looks like a lash egg.

x2 Totally agree, looks like lash. Have you cut it open?

 

[ellenmg]

No, I tossed it out... What is a lash egg?

Think of it as a petrified egg.
