why on earth did you mate a runt? in my opinion, that is unethical, much less 'getting rid of him.'

i doubt those are eggs that have been there that long. they may be fat deposits or fatty organs. eggs are deposited much sooner than that- egg retention can cause death. they may jsut be forming them & absorbing them, because they are not fertile.
