I've only had my girls since April and they just started laying end of Aug./beginning Sept.
I've only had ONE soft shell. (this is probably pretty good,right)?
It was pretty weird. One of the girls broke it where they lay. I had to take a shovel to get everythnig out, threw it on the outskirts of our yard. When I let the girls out, They were runnnig EVERYwhere. I thought something was up...oh yeah, one had that soft shell and was running for her life!!! LOL Everyone else was chasing her, I'm guessing b/c they wanted to eat it.
What's the reason for these soft shells?
Just beginning layers?
So, I shouldn't get anymore?
I still get little eggs tho... and i've NEVER gotten 10 eggs out of 10 girls! Should I? The most has been 8 one day.Mostly 6-7. The other day tho, i got 3 eggs.... it was cold and dark, rainy. Just awful.
