One of my EEs laid these eggs over the last two days. I'll be posting two pics of each egg with a comment in between. Thanks for any advice.
So as you can see, there was some weird pigmentation going on with this first egg. It looked "painted," with a dark turquoise swirl on one side. Not shown is a similar colored dot on one end. That was Monday's egg. The next two pics are yesterday's egg.
This egg not only had weird pigmenting, it also had this dark crusty material on it, which I attempted to wipe off with a paper towel. I thought it was poop, but it was black and very brittle. Thinking about it now, I wonder if it could have been dried blood, but it was somewhat blueish.
Now that I say that, I wonder if this post belongs in the Emergencies section. If so, would a moderator please move it? I'm going to tag a few of the Educators I think might have some insight into this. Thanks to any who might be able to help me. Especially helpful would be any suggestions as to what to look for among my 8 EEs to determine which one is having the problem. Again, thanks.
