I am having similar situation. No eggs, only soft shelled eggs with 10 laying hens @ 30 weeks and up. Now a broken pelvis.
I found out that they were eating the grower feed instead of layer feed. They don't like the layer feed or oyster shells. I provide a choice.
I watched my hens attack the grower feed that is there for the younger pullets and totally ignore the layer pellets. It looks like I am going to have to keep them separated until the pullets are 16 weeks.
I was told to add tums to their feed. I am going to have to find a layer feed they like.
