My first fart egg!

[kimntep]

Just got it today and it feels like a tiny water balloon!

Next to one of my jumbos!

I had this just happen recently not sure if this is common. The egg was normal in size, but chicken was not well in my opinion. Any reason this happens?

calcium defficiency?

I had a EE hen just come out of molt who layed 2 of those water balloon eggs,..reg. size though,...then she laid a fart egg with a good shell (it is blue,..looks like a robin egg,..so pretty!) and now she is back to laying normal size eggs with a nice pretty blue shell,....I hear it is common for young hens just laying their first eggs,...I wouldn't worry bout' it.

I had one of those too!! However the shell was hard and when I cracked it open there was no yoke, only white.

Most of the fart eggs I have gotten do not have a yolk.
