I have a hen that lays eggs that has a "loose" air sack and it is made up of about 20 smaller bubbles.




Here is is a little darker to maybe see it better.
 
I've seen that before, but only in shipped eggs! Looks like her eggs are shaken, not stirred :gig

Seriously though, I have no idea what would cause that in a freshly laid egg. Hopefully someone with more knowledge will pop in soon.
 
I had a hen (pullet) that when she first started laying for about the first couple months the air sells were loose like that and often ruptured. I don't know why, but whatever it was, balanced itself out and the air cells started being normal.
