I found this:

"An older egg will have a white that spreads more than a fresher
egg," he says. "But that has nothing to do
with the fact that the egg is spoiled or not, it's a chemical,
physical change in the egg."

In the normal way when you separate an egg there is a little 'cord'
that remains on the yolk (if I'm being picky I will pull that off too)
that I assume if the chick developed would be attached to its navel.

Perhaps the egg you had would have been a deformed issue had it gone
on to be a chick.

I didn't mean the fleck of red one associates with a fertilised egg
but rather a whitish, stringy thing that seems to keep the yolk in
place. In many recipes this is referred to and it says to remove.

This is more relevant

So again, I would suggest Janets egg, for whatever reason, was minus
this.

the creek that runs through our yard, first runs through the golf
course upstream We've got "lots" of those golf balls. We give a can
full to neighbors who golf and they can pick out the good ones, the
practice balls go into the trash

I wish my Poppy knew how to play with toys. She doesn't know what they
are I have bought all kinds of toys and kongs but she just looks at them
and goes to do something else.

The only game I have been able to teach her is if I go to one end of the
field/paddock and Himself holds her. Then I call her to me and she runs so
fast to get to me she is almost rolling over. She loves it. Once she has
recovered we do it the other way and he calls her.

She did say though that the white had no body and it just spread. I still
think that egg must have been old. I think she did the right thing and
dumped it.

That's a great game! She obviously loves it and it will wear her out.
Then she goes back inside and falls asleep all worn out and happy.

today's egg was fine. It was from the same carton. I'm still
puzzled. In the normal way, an old egg has runny white and a saggy
yolk. This yolk stood up tall.

Why play with inanimate objects when she has the 2 best toys ever
invented...Ophy and Himself.

Same with Mia. She wants to play with ME. The balls or whatever game
is only good if I'm part of the game.

what about soft, cuddly, stuffed toys like you would give to a baby.
All my dogs had a soft mouth and really enjoyed vigorously shaking and
stomping on the soft toys. My dogs have had everything from full size
teddy bears to little ones. We had baskets of them. My last dog
would carry a stuffed animal to the door when someone came to visit.
He'd also take it to bed with him and use it as a pillow. I just gave
the last of them away to a new rescue pup in the neighborhood.

So is decay. A chemical/physical change of the egg.

=====================

Did you have them from pups? Poppy never chases or carries anything. I can
see she has never played with anything at all until she came to us. It is
worth a try though so I will find a soft toy for her and she what we can do
with it.

Thanks for the idea

================================

LOL Good point It would be nice to have something to play with too
though instead of just the mad running, joyful as that is)

I will get her a soft toy and see what I can do with it, but you are quite
right, it isn't as though she isn't playing at all)

That red fleck appears in unfertilised eggs; it's from a harmless
small rupture of a bloodvessel in the hen, that happened as the egg
formed. It's NOT a developing foetus.

The string things (there's one at each end) are called chalazae and
are just anchors to hold the yolk in the centre of the shell. It's NOT a
chicken umbilical cord :-)

Make a big deal out of it to excite her curiosity/ Bring it home
hidden a paper bag and rustle the bag. Talk to her and tell her
you've brought her something. Open the bag and you look inside ,
wiggle it around her so she wants to look too. you know, make baby
toddler talk
The rescue pup that I took the last toy to hadn't ever had a soft toy.
I brought it in one of those bags people use instead of Christmas
wrapping and the very top of the toy was visible. I put the bag on
the floor and she went over, stuck her head in and after a bit pulled
out the toy. Husband and I had to remove the squeaker from the toy
before we gave it to Finch (the dog) She had been abused and is
frightened by noise. She is becoming very outgoing. She came from a
program at the state prison where inmates work and live with the dogs
they are training. It is a win/win for everyone. She is an
Australian Cattle Dog about 9 months old.
P.S. You may have to play with the toy and show her how to play and
tease her a bit. Also, some dogs just don't see the point in carrying
anything around. They can be stubborn little creatures while they
have YOU in training. )

I like eggs with bright yellow yolks because that means they're very rich in zeaxanthin for our eyes.

The problem is she just isn't interested in anything that isn't food. I
couldn't get her interested in the kong even though it had her favourite
treat tucked in I will do what you say though ...

LOL ain't that the truth) She has us *very* well trained now, so keep
your fingers crossed for me. Remember though she is nearly 7 years old.
This is the dog that lived with 41 dogs and two cats all her life so it
isn't surprising she doesn't know what toys are. Still, it is worth a
try)

I will do as you suggest. I will buy a toy tomorrow and report back

Thank you!

NOTE: All of my dogs turned up their nose at anything Kong.
If I lived near by I would get her the squishiest, softest dolly that
is her size so she could use it as a pillow. It sounds like she needs
a cuddle buddy. They recognize faces and eyes you know.

Right!!! Thanks for the advice) Soft, cuddly, with a face!!! If I can't
find anything tomorrow, I will wait until I can get into the city and find a
proper toy shop! Will let you know

Thanks, again

She won't run *after or for* anything. She just runs *to* one of us.

It's also quite unlikely that chickens in a commercial egg
laying context would suddenly walk into a rooster and go for a quickie
in the haystack.
