The other day I went outside and there were 6 blobs on the porch that looked like someone had egged our house. Yesterday I went out and counted 23 what's going on. I fumed about if for a bit and looked again, HMMM no shells? How did they do that? I then discovered the condensation from the hot tub and dryer were causing the roof to drip. What would you have thought at first?

Hmmm.....

Certainly does resemble eggs!

Reminds me of the beginning of the stalagmite (of ice) we find under our furnace vent every winter.

Good sleuthing to find the source :thumbup:

How weird! What would I have thought first? NOTICE: IF YOU HAVEN'T HAD YOUR COFFEE YET, OR HAVE A WEAK STOMACH, DO NOT CONTINUE READING.

Well, this is gross, but men down here in South Texas have a propensity for spitting loogees out the car windows (sorry if this is TMI) and when I saw your pictures that was the first thing that came to mind. REALLY glad to hear it was something else.

My car got egged last winter. They froze on my hood and were a real pain to get rid off.
Glad it wasn't that.
