Yesterday, I found a strange thing in the poo-board. I wish I had taken a pic of it, but of course, my mind didn't work that fast...
Occasionally I've found a shell-less egg in there in the morning along with the poo.
Yesterday, what appeared to be a broken, shell-less egg was there and it did not have a yolk - it had what looked like an already formed chick. The head was there and a mass of tough (skin?, shell? IDK...) under the head.
Is it even possible that a hen could've kept an egg inside her until the chick was this far along and then pop it out?
This sounds crazy but what else could've it been? It really did look like a chicken formation. We have 11 hens, get 5-9 eggs/day.
