Boiled eggs don't peel

[MrRushed]

My girls just started laying about a week ago, I boiled some of the fresh eggs and the shell stuck, they just don't peel.
I even boiled them with some store bought eggs and the store bought eggs peeled just fine.
Is their a problem with my eggs?

Your eggs are just fine, they are fresh. You said they started laying a week ago? The store eggs are older, older eggs peel better. Not sure if there is an exact timeframe, but I let mine set 2 weeks before boiling. I have an egg carton just for my boiling eggs and everyone knows not to eat them.

Right, so leave them in the fridge for another week and they will be fine

I think store bought eggs are about 3 or 4 weeks old when you get them
