My young hens, roughly 6 months old are laying regularly now. Today when I went out I found two eggs lying in a little pool of egg whites (maybe a tiny bit of yolk). Initially I thought an egg had been dropped onto the bottom of the next box and broken. The girls tend to hollow out a place leaving the bare wood over time. However, when I picked up the eggs from the mess, they were not broken. No evidence of any shell or membrane anywhere in the box or just outside. I'm a novice really. Had hens in the past, but its been many many years. What's going on? We feed laying mash, plus scraps and scratch. Mealworms and bugs from the pool for snacks. Any ideas? I did clean up the mess and put new bedding down.
