egg problems with 1 hen

[kitabubbs]

I have 11 hens who lay regularly and have nothing wrong with their eggs... My rock hen however is a different story, i get everything from banded to broken and reformed eggs, including shelless. She is the only one ive kept a trail camera out thinking she was being picked on, nothing... Ive thought about a calcium problem but my other hens dont have a problem... What should i do?

Sadly enough, there are some hens that will never lay a proper egg.


You need to decide if you want to keep her, or if you want to eat her... Nothing you do will get her to lay proper eggs.

Oyster shell on the side is very nice and helpful to keep all of your ladies laying well.. However, that does NOT sound like it is the problem with your rock hen.
