    Calcium deposit on EE eggs?

    Hey Guys! I have a 9mons old EE that is a great layer, but more often than not her eggs have these extremely bumpy areas, only on one end. I've read it can be excess calcium, but none of my other 13 hens are having the same problem! Here are two eggs layed yesterday and today.

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    They are lovely and sweet, which is what I like best. The Roo is a true gentleman, and sweet as can be with young children and all humans that come into our yard. Even if they aren't SQ, I think I won the chicken lottery!!

    all the sudden no eggs!

    I was aware that the decrease in daylight would lower their egg production and that's why we suplimented their light in the AM. We've been doing that for weeks, and their egg production kept up great. No one is molting. And you're right, Buff Brahmas are excellent layers, that's why I'm so...

    Share you Rooster pictures here :)

    This is Fawkes, he's since been culled because he turned VERY mean towards my hens. He was a feed store Easter Egger I was not keen on getting another Roo, since I wasn't convinced another wouldn't be as much an *******, but a local farm who breeds Amerucanas had a Roo that needed a home...

    My rooster is a chicken! (Wuss!!)

    So I have 10 hens and one Rooster (an easter egger, he's really really handsome). 6 hens were hatched first week of april, and went into the coop at 5 weeks. I then got two EE chicks (one turned out to be a Roo) and 3 GL chicks (GL's are a week younger than EE's) I added the two EE's to the...
