Default Found a turkey egg

I shot my tom a few weeks ago and have been working around the house planting gardens etc. I wasadding bark mulch in a couple of gardens and around some of the fruit trees and when I was roughing up the old mulch I found 2 different turkey eggs in separate gardens. Each egg was all by itself buried in old bark mulch. The two eggs were about 50 yds apart. I know it was a turkey egg but never heard of them being buried. I have seen several turkey nests and these places were not like a nest. The eggs were both this years and buried about 2" under the mulch. I wonder if something stole the eggs and stashed them for a future meal. BTW I live in the northeast. Any ideas? This is the first time I have ever seen this.
