That can be because they need calcium. Try giving them oyster shell and see if they stop breaking their eggs.

Ok thanks yeah I mix oster shell with there food yesterday but I also just put them on layer yesterday. So mabe it needs time to kick in lol?

Possibly. That's what the poultry expert at our local feed store told us to try. Otherwise you might have a spiteful hen who just breaks eggs. She said that can happen, but if yours just started laying she probably needs calcium.

I have 7 girls, only 5 are laying though. I usually get 5 eggs a day, every day, but today for some reason I only got 3. I think it is all this rain and cloudiness we've been having and it is much cooler today than it has been.

10/12 today - a new record! It looks like about all of them are laying now, at 21-22 weeks.
