Hey everyone,
I have had chickens for many years. Since late October the new girls have started laying. I have 6 new hens born in late April. I have gotten the double yolk 3 weeks ago. last week I have gotten 3 discolored eggs. It looked almost like a pale purple. It honestly looks like there is a white film over a brown egg. It's not like I can scratch the color off the egg. I know the girls are still young and they always start off with strange shapes and sizes but to be discolored like it is. I have never gotten this color before. All the hens seem healthy. I just want to know if I can do anything to make sure that I won't loose a chicken to a illness.
