Lash material, one of your birds has a reproductive infection

I don’t really know. Usually meat or blood spots are common findings, and are safe to eat. Can you cut that object open and take another picture? @Wyorp Rock or @azygous, have you seen this in an egg? I have not heard of lash material inside an egg, but others may have an idea.

I've never seen that in any egg. It's revolting.

I've never seen that either.

Revolting is a great word Carol.
I would be curious to see if the object can be cut open and what's inside of it though.

I don't think I would eat that egg, that's all I know!
