I have a 1 year old black sex link hen that was laying fine until about 6 weeks ago she had a bad case of sour crop and stoped laying. She started laying again 5 days ago. The first 2 days she laid soft shelled eggs but the last 3 days there has been no shell at all.
Her feed is 16% layer pellets and she has a bowl of crushed oyster shells and a bowl of washed sand for grit available 24/7.
She was a little over a week recovering from the sour crop but is now back to her normal self except for laying eggs with no shell.
She would normaly be in the main coop with her sisters but since the sour crop she has been in our isolation coop with another hen and our retired rooster.
Is there something else I can do for her or is there something I'm overlooking?
All advice greatly appreciated
Thanks
