No Staff or Students Confess—Frustrated Teacher Sets Up Camera to Catch Boiled Egg Thief, Shocked by Crystal Clear Footage of Culprit
A frustrated art teacher at a Nakhon Ratchasima school set up a hidden camera to catch whoever was stealing his boiled eggs, which had been disappearing overnight. Surprisingly, the crystal-clear footage revealed the thief was not a staff member or student, but a clever neighborhood crow caught red-handed raiding the eggs twice in early morning hours.
A frustrated young teacher set up a hidden camera to catch the boiled egg thief, but the shocking revelation caught on film wasn't a staff member or student at all.
On April 25, 2569, a reporter documented the case of James, or Mr. Anuwijit Thiamkrathok, an art and music teacher at Ban Mab Karad School in Khokkrachai Subdistrict, Krabi District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province, who installed a camera hoping to photograph whoever was stealing his boiled eggs. Previously, on April 23, an entire batch of boiled eggs left outside his room disappeared from the cooking pot overnight. The shocking revelation came when the camera caught the culprit clearly on film—it wasn't who he expected.
Teacher James explained that he routinely boils large batches of chicken eggs and stores them in the refrigerator for convenience. On April 23, he followed his usual routine but left the eggs in the uncovered pot overnight. The next morning, all the eggs had vanished. He questioned both staff and students, but no one admitted to taking them.
Wondering if it could have been a dog—though how a dog could steal the eggs without knocking over the pot remained a mystery—he repositioned the security camera to a new angle. He then boiled two eggs as bait and left them in the pot overnight to catch the thief red-handed. Around 5:50 a.m., the camera revealed the culprit: a crow swooped in and grabbed the first egg before returning around 6:19 a.m. to steal the second one. The unexpected thief turned out to be none other than the neighborhood crow.
