Hello. I'm hoping someone might be able to provide information about something going on with one of our ducks, specifically in the eggs that it is laying. We keep a flock of 16 ducks (a variety of white pekin, cayuga, buff orpington, runners, and rouen) and 2 toulouse geese. Two of the ducks, not sure which ones, recently began laying again. One of the two we find each morning is coated with a dark brownish grey coating which when washed off, is very slimy. It's definitely not dirt or something picked up after laying. When cracking the eggs open, they have some greyish spots inside of them, which look like mold (I'm sure they are not mold, it's just what they look like). We aren't eating them.
Any thoughts on what this could be?
Thanks!
Jen
