We thought Evan was fine with eggs, as long as they were from pasture-fed/grass-fed chickens, but this week I fed him half a scrambled egg and he cried and cried at night. He had some vomiting, and diarrhea and an itchy rash the next day. Not sure if he was reacting to the egg or the safflower oil I used with it... He seemed fine with the pasture-raised eggs, when he had them in homemade sorghum pasta or muffins. We did try other eggs from cage-free chickens some months ago, which clearly caused vomiting!
So I took the risk and gave him more eggs for two additional days, this time without the safflower oil, and amazingly, his rash cleared up some, instead of getting worse. This makes me conclude that he most likely reacted to the safflower oil and/or something else he touched or picked up. So glad if he can have eggs from pasture raised chickens, and safflower oil goes on the unsafe list of foods for now, though he might only be able to handle a small amount of egg at a time...
