Don't play soccer with the chickens! You could go swimming with them but they do get water logged...

Hello, Nice to meet you! So basically you are saying your Barred Rocks are laying soft eggs? I think what you might need are some oysters. What they do are harden the shells of chickens check out this site it may help.http://blog.mcmurrayhatchery.com/2011/03/29/should-i-feed-my-chickens-oyster-shells/

Again nice to meet you hope I helped at least a little lol.

How are you going to get a chicken to e oisters on the half shell? Kidding LOL
