I could post a picture, but I am sure that if you have gotten an egg like this, you know what I mean. One of our browns routinely lays eggs that seem to have calcium deposit on them. You can easily scratch it off with your finger nail and it leaves no mark on the egg. Any ideas as to what it...

ok guys!!!!! Help me out here. as soon as she reads this I am going to be installing room darkening shades in the coop and somehow it will be my job to close them every night. after that it will be off to the groomer to have their feathers done.
