    My hen is repeatedly laying soft shell eggs - Help!

    I had a few soft shelled eggs when some of mine first started laying. I actually got one of those metal rabbit feeders and screwed it to the wall of my coop, I keep it filled with oyster shells at all times. I've not had a single soft shell since. :-)
