Mystery Egg

[Avalanche]

Mystery Egg, well not really a mystery but something new to me.

I was feeding last night and my BCC's got quail for dinner. My male Guyana doesn't like to eat off the tongs so I always show him the food, he smells it for a few seconds then I just lay it down and leave. I went back a few hours later to make sure everyone ate and I found this is his cage.

I'm not sure if he wrapped the quail up after I left or just started eating it. Either way having a quail egg squeezed out is a first for me. Anyone else ever have this happen?

Just thought I'd share.

Re: Mystery Egg

I feed my boas quail pretty often and have never had that happen. It's kinda cool.

Re: Mystery Egg

I've never fed Quail myself . . although I think it's too bad
the egg was squeezed out . . that would have been fantastic extra nourishment . . .
Maint species of snakes seak out and eat eggs . . .

I don't know if Boas in the Wild do . . .
Iimagine they would eat it if it were near and available . . .

I'd give another of my Boas the option

Re: Mystery Egg

This reminds me of those sleight of hand magic routines where things like eggs or coins suddenly appear...so if you haven't already, you might want to name this guy after a famous magician.
