finding some eggs that have broken/cracked shells

last one was about a dime/finger nail size piece of shell missing...but the membrane inside was intact...not sure if this is pecking or just random damage...2 other eggs and a golf ball in same nesting box at the same time...

had a couple other eggs last week that had what looks to be small peck holes, but not thru the inner membrane

and no signs of dried yolk on any beaks either

My guess is that your hens need their toe nails blunted/trimmed.
