    Hi, No. My son was the one who found it. My guess that it was a black chicken.

    Hi, This was really very different. It was a bag with an egg in side. The shell was still soft and it was a normal egg white and yoke. The sack was almost like a blob. The sack was not the shell. The shell was inside the blob sack. Hope this makes sense. Has somebody experienced this...

    Should all my chickens lay eggs?

    No they are not all the same breed. The ones that are laying the black ones. Sorry, I don't know the names of the breeds. My husband ordered them. Now I do question the temperature. It does get over 100 degrees in the desert. But they are shaded and plenty of cooling water.
