The Farmers' Daughter

Hi
I just got some hens last week. They're supposed to be buckeyes but they're obviously mixed with something, possibly game fowl. They're a spring 2016 hatch.
Every morning for the past 3 days I'm finding a membrane in the poop tray with no evidence of shell or yolk for that matter.
The girls have free access to oyster shell (Pacific pearl) at all times. They're being fed hi pro layer. They also have access to fresh and dried grass.
Is there anything else I can do to help her develop shells?
