Mystery

 

Lots of thoughts about what those eggs might be.  We don’t really think they’re yogurt covered almonds, Rufous Sided Colorado chipmunk eggs, small duck eggs, Cadbury eggs, mouse eggs, hummingbird eggs, robin eggs, Easter eggs, dove eggs, or rock candy, but thanks for your suggestions/guesses.

 

No we didn’t taste them.  The shells are not as hard as bird eggs.  They were not in a nest, just in a quiet dark place.  We don’t think they are bird eggs.  We’re thinking reptile.  That brings us back to turtles, but the eggs were not in a place our turtles can get to.  The turtles dig holes in the ground.  They don’t climb.

 

That leaves lizards and snakes.  We haven’t seen any lizards that big.  A snake could get up there…

 

Just got an email from Chris (Bigfoot).  He says they’re gecko eggs.  He said it with great authority.  He could be right…  He found some in his shed.  This wasn’t in our shed but it was in a semi-dark place…
