    Soft eggs

    Our Leghorn has been laying eggs like this for about 3 weeks. She has oyster shells available and is fed egg layer feed. We think she close to 2 years old but aren't sure because we rescued her from an egg farm that left them all to die last year. Is she coming to the end of her egg days?

    How do you get them in at night?
