Heya Backyard Chicken peeps!
Can anyone clue me in as to why when we're frying our eggs, the whites are watery, and the yolk membrane so weak that they almost always break?

I haven't had this issue before. Can you include pictures?
How old are your layers? What are you feeding them?

I am having this issue - but the membrane is breaking in my eggs. Any suggestions would help. My hens are about 2 years old.

Any health issues in your flock? How do you store your eggs?

 

[djcram]

No issues with the flock....they are all healthy and spoiled! We store the eggs in the refrigerator

eggs get more watery as they age, i find. with a freshly-laid egg the white practically stands up on its own.

i don't store in fridge

I had store brand eggs watery whites. But not the issue of the yolk.
