Hi,
My hens are laying their eggs in the nest boxes, but when another hen goes into lay, it appears that the egg gets squashed. The shells are hard, the are not soft. This has been going on a few days now, I just checked and an egg has been squashed by a hen who is laying. There is sufficient bedding, so they wont crack. There is no egg eating.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
