I am trying to figure why our fresh eggs smell of sulfur. It is not an isolated incident. It is all of the eggs and the smell comes out while they are being cooked. We are on well water which does not smell of sulfur but I am sure it is high in sulfur. We are noticing it more and more as the hens mature. We are feeding Layena as of fall and we did notice shortly after but the hens are only from spring of 11, so we are not sure if that is coincidence.
