It’s definitely not all the way through. I’m thinking it’s an internal problem as well, unfortunately, because the egg is so long and it’s just that one spot that seems narrow. I like the idea of being able to salvage the egg, though!It sounds and looks a little more involved than simply being stepped on or pecked. I’m thinking more what Jacinlarkwell said. Make sure you have some oyster shell available for your girls - maybe they have enough in the feed but won’t hurt to have some available- it’s not gonna go bad! However, I am wondering if something is glitching or damaged or something with her egg plumbing to be so consistently laying these eggs? Sorry, not sure what that might be though.
As far as eating them, is the hole a through and through? I’ll still eat an egg (collected that day and put in fridge right away) if the shell is cracked but inner membrane still intact. If it’s leaky or too dirty then I might ‘accidentally’ drop it in the coop ...
