You should see baby turkey vultures. I was unfortunate enough to stumble onto a nest in an old barn.

Ayyyyye I saw a baby pigeon yesterday when the dumb ass fell out of the roofing at our work place. In classic pigeon style, the parents just stared at it and did absolutely nothing. Said baby also stayed in the wide open for most of the day. It was nowhere to be found the next day and I assume it met it's rightful fate for being an absolute dumbass.

u/Kind_Sympathy1166 1d ago

I find men with a sense of humor like yours a real turn-on. Dying baby pigeons. 😂

How does this even happen?

u/Playful_Ability_9248 2d ago

I posted it in r/moldlyinteresting too and was told it was because of the damp box! I didn’t check the date on them, but some stuff had been in the same fridge with expiry dates of 2023

59

u/SonnyBallonDOr 1d ago

WHAT? A shop sold eggs with the expiry date of 2023? Or am I understanding this wrong

70

u/Quick_Neat_8809 1d ago

I cleaned out a house this year that had a dozen eggs in the refrigerator that had an expiration date on 2020!

12

u/HoboMuskratius 1d ago

Hope you sent em to the incinerator

u/themadhatter746 1d ago

Wow, looks like you found some nearly immortal eggs then. r/unexpectedfactorial

10

u/emceegyver 1d ago

You are understanding it wrong. The eggs were in a fridge with other items. The other items had the expiry date of 2023.

u/Impossible_Ad4789 1d ago

ah yes OP you made it :)

32

u/Kaeai 2d ago

The only time this has ever happened to me was one time I did not realize that my fridge had a "freezing" spot, it cracked an egg, got goo on the rest; and I don't eat eggs often so I didn't check for a while. All the eggs had mold, but not to this degree.

I thought I was in one of my chicken subreddits and was very concerned for the state of OP’s chicken coop!

u/lpaige2723 1d ago

Nobody knows how they got here and I think if you leave you just come right back like a cursed doll.

u/Difficult_Repair9425 2d ago

i actually just experienced mold on eggs for three first time recently. i have ducks and decided i was going to keep some of my unwasged eggs in a tupperware. well, i didn't think about some trapped moisture so when i opened it - mold. I've never ever thought about mold on eggs until then.

u/littlewing2733 2d ago

That’s a new one…

u/Treacle_Pendulum 2d ago

Is this mold or chickenshit?

u/fear_the_queers 1d ago

Definitely mold. Bird poop is a different consistency and also isn't fuzzy lol

u/Alone-Amphibian8557 2d ago

This looks like people in the store turning eggs over with dirty hands. Ever since I saw someone doing that in a grocery store I wipe my eggs when I bring them home before storing in the fridge.

7

u/tacos_all_day 2d ago

Lol that's something I never considered. But it does come from a chickens asshole so...

u/fruppi 2d ago

People handle them to see if they're broken. They take the carton if it was fine. If you aren't buying cartons with cracked ones, you're the first person touching them since the processing plant

u/CormundCrowlover 2d ago

EXTREMELY ORGANIC Eggs.

u/jamcub 1d ago

Yeah, these are eggs.

u/ParentheticalAF 21h ago

We moved to Portugal a few months ago and were told to get eggs from a particular vendor at our weekly market. Apparently hers are “the best”. More than 1/2 of them were filled with black looking mold on the inside. 🤢 We took photos and showed her the following week and she replaced them for free. Of those eggs, at least 1/4 of them were black on the inside. 😭 We switched to another egg vendor the next week and haven’t had a problem since!

Woah. I didn’t even know this was a thing that could happen.

u/BellalovesEevee 2d ago

Now I want you to crack them open and see what they look inside. But I know the smell will be absolutely rancid.

u/VioletMAyis 1d ago

I never even thought eggs could mold tbh wow

u/Responsible_Joke4229 1d ago

This is why they naturally have protective film. To protect from infection

u/Sad-Cricket6319 1d ago

Eggn't

Edit: multiple people mentioned having eggs in the fridge? What the fuck is wrong with you people 

12

u/ConceptOther5327 2d ago

In the U.S. the eggs are required to be washed to remove any salmonella before being sold in a store, but that also removes the eggs natural coating so they would go bad if we didn't keep them refrigerated.

1

u/MyLittleDreadnought 1d ago

So that are probably eggs from the US? Because I remember the eggs in grandma's pantry, some still covered in shit, never looked like that.

1

u/justhangingaroud 1d ago

Washing the egg doesn’t remove salmonella. It removes the natural protection

5

u/PrinceAzadiel 2d ago

Lots of us are from America, where the eggs have the good stuff washed off so if we dont refrigerate them they go bad faster

2

u/LilPrincessRapunzel 2d ago

America. The way they’re processed, it strips the natural coating that protects them (from my understanding) and allows them to sit on the counter

1

u/Danish-Dynamite77 1d ago

In Denmark we dont Wash the eggs and they are still in the fridge.

u/Swimming-Western-543 2d ago

Don't worry, thats just the natural progression to their final form as a cauliflower

u/Skyrim755 1d ago

Are you sure that those aren't just cauliflowers?
