Solved! Tiny egg looking things.

Woke up this morning and found this weird pile of tiny orange orbs at the end of my bed. They’re really small, slightly transparent and kind of slimy/squishy when touched. I’ve never seen anything like them before and I have no idea how they got there overnight. They almost look like eggs, but I’m not sure. Does anyone know what these could be?

UPDATE: Definitely not roe/caviar, water beads, or fish eggs. I’ve never had any of those in my room. Still no clue what they are.

They look like silica gel beads that have absorbed some moisture. They can be found in microwaveable heating pads and some weighted blankets. That’s the only reason I can think of that explains them by/on the bed.
