Glad to hear things resolved - if she continues having difficulties passing eggs, you may consider supplemental calcium to improve contractions, and strengthen shells.

Thank you! Yes they have TONS of oyster shell everywhere. I was late switching to layer feed, but they have been on it for a few weeks now. This egg she passed was soft shelled. I let them free range when it isn't raining so they can get sun for Vit D/calcium absorption. I am just so thankful she passed it. I will keep a close eye on her. This was her first egg so I hope she gets the hang of it. Might set up a third nest box in case the mean girl BCMs are bullying too much the other 2 don't feel comfortable. I only have 4 hens! LOL Thanks again!
