One of my hens is laying rotten eggs. HELP!

Did you work out the issue with the bad eggs. I am having a similar issue. 36 hens and 3 bad eggs in 3 weeks. All fresh eggs. Yes not kept in the fridge by the buyer. Not sure what to do, but desperate as I’m sure you were to solve this issue, or egg sales will have to cease.

Separate your hens by groups to narrow down the culprit

Hi

One of my chickens has been laying rotten eggs. They look normal and fine, but when you crack it open its mostly green and black and STINKS!!

I have nine hens and all the others are laying perfectly normal eggs, so i doubt it is something she is eating.

She is around 1 and a half years old. She seems perfectly healthy & happy otherwise.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Many thanks
