For several weeks now, I’ve had this amoeba like thing in one of my eggs. I’d say I find one every 7 days. It appears to be an oversized nematode possibly? Oh and it even moves! Ugh. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
There's at least one paper about an oviduct fluke being found alive in a free range hen. Try googling that and looking at the thumbnails (I think the video file itself is under a paywall). Apparently this is rare but not unheard of!
