Word of advice guys... If you THINK there is a smell... There is most likely a smell. Check all eggs.

Ewwwwee

. I was checking because I thought a smelled something and one EXPLODED IN MY HAND!!! Thankfully outside the incubator. Can I just say YUCK!!!!!

my gosh.. This reminds me of when I found a nest in the hay when I was 9... Wondering if they were good, I stupidly shook it next to my ear to see if I could hear anything... It blew up all over my ear, my hand, my face... And the smell! Something you don't forget!

Thanks @Chaos18 and @DwayneNLiz. All the talk of breakfast now I'm hungry. Time for some cheesy eggs with toast.

You're welcome. Those are actually the names of my ducks. Waffles (just hatched), Bacon (almost 5 weeks old) & Eggs (same age as Bacon)

I had one rotten egg under a broody. I knew better than to let it break anywhere near me. The smell was bad, but not as bad as it breaking on me!

It was bad. Had a greenish brown liquid and took lemon juice to get the smell off.
