6 month old RIR pullet laid a tinsy tiny egg today??? What the heck??

[polochic]

She is about 6 or 7 month old and has been laying regular size eggs. This one is about the size of a quarter. Wierd? Does any body know what the deal is?

They're called fart eggs. Happen occasionally. Nothing to worry about. Kind of just a hiccup in the egg factory.

Few of my hens, did this when first starting to lay too........It's very common!
