When eggs become weapons of mass-destruction :(

Oh. My. God. BREAK OUT THE HAZMAT GEAR!!!! My poor room mate found an old nest today with a hen still trying (succeeding!) to "cook" them and I'm getting the blow-by-blow via text message!!! Oh it sounds bad...like a war zone... with rotten (really rotten) egg-bombs, bombs bursting (in air??) land mines, air-to-roommate-missiles, stink bombs, sludge bombs... Oh, I think I'm just going to move out for a few weeks. The texts contained a lot of "F"s, and phonetically spelled-out "Gurrg" type words, poor guy!!! Even as I sit here, safe, in my office, laughing my butt off, I am intermittently shuddering in sympathy.

Yup, I am definitely moving out for a while. He's going to be unbearable. Uno, got a spare room I can use for a while?

So, what's the recommended procedure for containing and moving these volatile stinkers? He says a few have exploded spontaneously and I'm afraid. I think he's probably quit, and who can blame him. I'm very afraid.... I don't think I'll go home today. Or ever. The texts keep coming...though they are less frequent. I think he's weakening. I will miss him I think. Poor Ba$tard. lol

Come on over, you can sleep in the tack shed. It's pretty swanky. But leave egg stinky farm guy behind!

Poor guy! Tell him to throw a towel or tarp over them or wait...won't the dogs take care of this? They LOVE this kind of thing.

Hope the dust has settled at your house and the air has cleared. Literally.

Gross!

Could have been far worse. You may have found it

Very carefully. lol I lob them like grenades.

Disgusting and hilarious at the same time!

I had one blow in my hand once. I thought I was going to loose my mind. The stench was unbearable and the green goo oooozing down my arm, sprayed on my face, hair (long hair at that) and front... omg... im gonna be ill!

Your a sick puppy!! Have a beautiful and most awesome stinky egg blowing up day, CynthiaM.
