Sorry about the broken eggs. Are the birds breaking them or just bad drops?? If it's the birds, try setting the nest boxes with a slight level going backwards and line with those drawer liners from the store. This will cause the eggs to roll backwards away from the birds after laying and gently moving away from feet and beaks. You can even put up a barrier to separate them completely after laying. Well that's the idea

Good idea @Tjordan
It starts with bad drops and a possible calcium deficiency cos some unbroken eggs has poor egg shells and the high temp.
A funny thing with my chickens is that they like to see something rolling on the ground and follow it hitting their beak on it. Haha!
I think that's how they break some of the eggs. I've seen them once do that. One of the them like to lay from above the wooden bar I made for them to jump on and off (have fun). She do that most of the time.
The feed may have low calcium percentage or high temp of the season, so I'll have to get xtra calcium for them.
