The white egg could still be from a brown egg layer. On brown eggs, the brown bloom is the final step. If you look at the inside of the shell, they are white.My Spring chicks are now pretty girls & are giving me eggs daily...hurrah!
I have for the past few days gotten one egg with NO shell..the one yesterday had the beginnings of a shell.
The one today had only the egg sack with no indication of a shell at all.
I get 4 to 6 eggs daily & this is the only one like that the others have lovely solid shells.
The beginning shell was a whitish color whereas all the other eggs are brown or dark brown.

They get calcium..any one else have this issue??
I have had one or two before..but then it usually resolves & the hen develops the ability to create a shell.
Our main predator here is the local fox population and coyotes. I had a flock of 24 nearly wiped out one nite when a coyote dug thru and took 18 of my hens. It is discouraging when something like that happens to say the least.
