Have 6 chickens that just started laying recently. Two day ago noticed one hen looked like she wanted to lay an egg ......she did and it was soft shelled! Now last night the same thing another soft shelled egg and there was a yolk (not in a shell) outside of the egg and maybe like a bit of white around the yolk! So it was like she laid two eggs. One in a soft shell and one not even in a shell at the same time. Is it possible that they can have a defective layer! Have not went and got the oyster shell to try to get the shells hard,
