    She just dropped a complete yolk with a membrane around it about an hour after the soft shelled egg.

    Pullet acting strange

    18 week old red sex link, started laying about a week ago. Her first egg was VERY soft. Have gotten a couple since then that I suspect were from her.

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I have ten *almost* 18 week old production reds, 6 of which have large fleshy red combs and waddles and are squatting like crazy. The other four are getting there but are lagging behind a bit. I have gone back to work now from a COVID lay off but my husband is still home so he checks...

    Help!

    I know that can happen..I'm just concerned about the egg white that leaked out from the egg inside her..or is that just yolk I have to worry about?

    Help!

    Her vent is clear and looks normal and it was only a bit of the egg white, not the yolk. The yolk was small, but perfectly intact.
