Today, it's been a week since I found an egg in the street that had seemingly fallen out of a nest. I'd bought a cage and an expensive incubator lamp to save it. It's thus been a week that I've been trying to save a mouldy old potato. FML

Aww. It was nice of you to care though :) you'd make an egg-cellent parent. And no good deed shell go unrewarded.

That's not very eggciting! I guess the yolks on you.

Okay im sorry but something in my mind says that op doesnt mean a literal potato cause 1 how in the **** does a mother bird get a full on potato into a nest? Second of all, do birds even eat potatos? Im sorry but i think op is meaning a metaphorical potato

OP found the potato on the street and thought it was an egg that fell out of a nest. Reading comprehension is your friend.

And thanks to this FML, I have spent the last two hours of my life googling pictures of chicken embryos and the process of candling an egg. FML.

How can you not tell the weight difference between a potato and an egg?!

Well it's better then the last "bird" egg I hatched we raise chickens so we thought it was a messed up chicken egg nope chicken snake

How could you have confused a potato with a birds egg????

It's okay. You did everything you could. It's not your fault. It's in a better place now.

It's the thought that counts. You have a good heart.

How can u confuse a moldy potato with an egg?

Not really. American spelling: moldy. British spelling: mouldy.

OP isn't from the US, so she actually did spell mouldy correctly since she's French.

It's sad how many Americans don't know that other English speaking countries spell things differently than we do.
