Background: I have a couple of 1.5 year old hens that are hitting their first molt. Not sure if this is from one of them (molting issue)- but I wanted to put this out to see if there were any insights.
Issue: I've had 3 eggs over the past week that were somewhat 'mal-formed' (see photo) - coming about every other day. All of them had whites that were the consistency of water. The yokes were fine and had good white around the yoke - but the rest of the eggs are like water (if I crack the egg water basically splashes out).
Any thoughts as what could be causing this? Molting? Parasites? Disease?
