My Sweet Lord! I went into the hen house again today and still noticed a faint foul aroma. I saw a couple more eggs and pulled them for disposal and went to digging into the nesting area. I digged all the way to the bare dirt scattering nesting material as I went and found another 16 rotten eggs which I promptly buried. All I can guess is the hen started stashing eggs before I could rob the nest, some were on or damn near right on the ground. These got wet, went sour and spoiled the whole kit & kaboodle.
If anybody has a better suggestion please let me know. I damn sure don't want to bury another 3 dozen or so rotten duck eggs. If nothing else I'm lazy by nature and don't like spending that much time on a shovel planting something that I know won't grow!
