Is it possible for a new layer to lay multiple shell-less eggs at once?

These were altogether under my roosting bar this morning.

My girls have plenty of access to a layer ration, oyster shell and a waterer with a calcium vit D solution (in addition to fresh plain water) but this little lady seems to have a glitch in her system. She’s been laying for about a month already I think. Will she grow out of it?
Her ‘sisters’ are all laying nice thick shelled eggs so she seems to be a bit behind.
She appears to be in good health, with appropriate chicken behaviour.

Welcome to BYC. I have seen hens lay a shelled egg followed by a soft-shelled egg, so it's probably possible to lay three softies. Would you happen to know which hen is doing it?
Yes, I’m pretty sure which one it may be because of the bluish tinge. Is there something I should monitor in her?
