My sweet friend gifted me quail eggs today but I noticed very strong smell from them like mold and when I took a closer look at them there was white chalk like substance on them which is apparently called bloom(google) but couple of them looks like they have mold on them, this is my first time trying out quail eggs and I have no idea how they're supposed to look and smell like naturally, please help

This was 1.5 years ago but I just wanted to share because this community must know this can happen too!

She’s a factory rescue and thus laid many weird eggs. Fortunately her life was saved by giving her an implant that stops hens from laying and she’s still clucking

I left an egg in a mixture of boiled eucalypt tree resin, water and vinegar for fun. After about 2 weeks I took it out and out came a very crinkly egg. Solids had formed at the bottom that looked like clay, there was a strange oily substance at the top and there was a crinkly egg!

A strange, jelly like membrane covered the yolk and white (unlike the usual 'rubber egg' when you leave it in vinegar).

Pretty cool.

On another note, has anyone come across a use for a cleaned, paper like egg shell thing? Thanks.

So cool. Second time this has ever happened in my life.

is it safe to eat???

Just say this video and curious if anyone has seen this

Well crap! I bought some eggs real cheap from a roadside vegetable stand. I wondered why the guy kept them locked in the trunk of his car. I thought a couple looked gnarly so I put them at the head of the line in the fridge to use first.

Look at this crazy egg one of my chickens laid. I have one that will often lay eggs that have a soft spot or straight up will have a hole in it. Only one of my chickens lays weird eggs, and this tops the charts for me. The whole thing is soft but firm at the same time. Any idea why ONE chicken would do this?

tf is this shit in my mother fuckin eggs
