I think Hannah is having issues. She's always laid a smaller egg, but I've not seen one from her, figured heat or soft molt (lots of feathers around the coop) was the reason. I saw her in the nest box before roosting time, went back after dark to collect her egg. No egg. Hmm. Went to check under the roost, occasionally I find an egg there. I did, but it appears to be a shelless egg, broken from a fall, and seeping into the litter.

Hopefully it is just a one off thing, like Wyorp suggested.

Unfortunately it is a common thing for me now. I see shell-less eggs or soft shell eggs quite a bit. Ladies are all doing fine otherwise.
