We had 2 pullets lay their first eggs yesterday afternoon. One was half soft shell and I know this can happen in the beginning. The other was malformed, like all the white did not get in the egg before the shell surrounded it. I want to make sure it's not serious.
We are feeding starter with OS & ES on side. The pullets have not gone to this container. We do have layer but we have 3 more ready to begin laying and 10 others that are almost 14 weeks.
Should I offer by hand some ES to the 5 that are 18.5 weeks? Suggestions?
