Something Odd Happened.!


Recommended Posts

No this is not a ghost story and I don't need an exorcism :laugh:

 

Okay, now I've the ducks in the shed way over the other side of the pigs/dogs. I was putting pigs in yesterday and saw this orange gloopy stuff in their dung, thought they were sick, I looked up saw this same stuff dripping from the inside of a cabinet we keep injections and what not in, so the cabinet is very high up. There was webs all over the opening so I know the doors hadn't been open in a couple weeks.

 

Got himself out to look at it, he opened the door and nothing, looked up to see an old dirty duck egg sitting right on the edge of the top cabinet! Shocked. Left it there came back last night it was gone no where to be seen. Until late last night himself saw Jerry Lee eating the same shell off the egg.!

 

Now if it was a rat it would have had to got the egg walked about 5 meters crawled over dog pen or kennel and down again, then up a wall about 7 foot to get on top of the cupboard. Then how the hell did it then get in with the dogs who are penned inside the shed?

 

Two things crossed my mind Rat or Magpie Cause that's the only things we've had about, although I've not seen rats since I went trapper on their ass! Now bear in mind I own big ducks who lay big damn eggs! It wasn't them flying up, wasn't dogs, pigs or anything else.

 

It's weird, I'm thinking we got them mutant rats that's built like a dog :icon_eek:

Yous call yourselves country men :laugh: ah no I'm at a loss to what this is aswel.

 

 

Seriously though would that be possible for a rat or magpie? The way I saw it at that time I thought no way. But stranger things have happened right?

 

Going to try pick up a live trap the mara cause I need to get the bugger, and would like a nosey rather than killing it straight away.

God yous are going back a bit now :laugh:

 

Only update is.. It's not happened since, have a broody duck sitting on a clutch of eggs other side of shed now and she's been up disturbed.

 

So whatever it was is either dead or never came back :)

 

Or it's lurking in the bushes somewhere waiting to pounce :icon_eek:

I reckon it was a "collected" egg you put up there last time you went in the cupboard for meds and forgot about it in between jobs.

Correct...I was going to say the exact same.
