Hello, all! I am the proud owner of six silkie chickens. I have five hens and one rooster. They are all very friendly and I love them all very much, but I have run into a bad problem. It has been seeming as if nobody's been laying any eggs, but I've been finding a few pieces of eggshell fragments around the coop with no egg yolk. I am now certain that some eggs are being eaten. I recently just found the culprit... One of my hens had sticky yolk all over her beak. I love her very much and I am really hoping for some good advice on how to stop this dangerous habit. Thank you so much!
