I have a flock of 6 hens, my girls were born in May 2023 & are all laying, my issue is my Sliver Sasso has been laying soft shells & the eggs are being crush in the nesting box I check the boxes on a regular basis and early in the morning.

All my other girls are laying hard shell eggs, I provide grit & egg shells, any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Are Sliver Sasso hens known for soft shells?

From a quick read, Sasso are high production hens, so she may need more calcium or just is not eating/getting the calcium she needs.

Give her 1 Calcium Citrate with D3 tablet daily for a week and see if that makes a difference. Just pop the tablet right into the beak and let her swallow.
