Help with my weird (lash?) egg please

[Tumbleweedlynn]

Hi All

I discovered this little weirdo in my Cemani coop today. The girls range from just under two to about 20 wks.

I’ve never had any of these hens/pullets give me any unusual eggs, but not sure if this a first for the youngest. Super thin shell - I broke up the mystery clump and it just looked like thick yolk.

Is this the lash egg I’ve only seen in OTHER threads? Thanks in advance (The egg looks to have been worked a half around the egg, but if anyone would’ve attempted to open it, it would’ve busted pretty easy).

It looks like one of the weird eggs that are possible, but not a lash egg. This article has a lot of odd eggs:

That was an interesting read - I have seen a couple of those, for sure.

I feel better about it not being lash, but I’m still weirded out by the contents. And I meant to say my youngest was 15 weeks, but I’m not even positive she is a “she” yet

The thin shells can be common with a new layer. Have you ever noticed any long term sneezing in any birds. My flock has a respiratory virus, infectious bronchitis, that can cause a lot of abnormal egg shells.

That is great to know! I do hear occasional sneezes here and there, but nothing I can really say is consistent. I’m fixing to move these two “girls” into another coop, so I will be able to keep an eye on it
