First, My hubby found egg shells in the coop the other night. I got home from work today to find 1 egg that was broken because they were pecking at it and two eggs that were fine.
Two have been laying for a week with no previous problems with egg eating till the other day. Today a third started to lay. One egg was cracked and two were ok.
I must also mention they are not laying in the nest boxes. They are laying throughout the coop. Which i don't mind except they are starting to eat their own eggs. I do have oyster shells available.
How do I stop this? Especially since I can't be home during the day when they are laying because I have to work.
