Question yellow eggs

Hi all, I've been re-potting my bulbs, as one does at this time of year, and have found that the deeper soil in many of the pots is full of little round bright yellow eggs, about the size of peppercorns. They contain a gritty white goo and crush easily. I assumed they must be some sort of common insect, but neither of my gardening gurus (my dad and my dad-in-law) had seen them before, and i couldn't find any obvious matches on the net. It's beginning to intrigue me....can anyone ease my bafflement??
