My daughter found this in the yard

If they are just getting started, there are a lot of bloops. I would not worry.

I've fed 10,000 eggs to my chickens and they never eat unbroken eggs

Mine will eat every unbroken egg after only getting one taste, so maybe mine are just extra bad

 

[ManedWolf]

How do I stop her?

If I suspect my chickens are eating eggs I will collect eggs as many times a day as possible, so they don't even get a chance. Additionally, I place golf balls in the nest box as decoy eggs, this will trick them into thinking eggs are unbreakable.

It's a pale brown/pink color, and she lays super dark. She's a bcm. I think my Brahma may have laid her first egg, and old big booty Judy there sat on it and broke it.

It's possible if Big booty Judy is in a broody mood. If not I don't see why she would sit on it.

That's not her coop or nesting box. She just likes to squeeze her big butt in there, and that coop is pretty dark. I don't think she seen it until it cracked she's been sitting in that nesting box all week, I'm not sure why.

Sounds like she getting broody.
