I got a fart egg. It looked like a gum ball.

Cracked open.

I've done some reading up on it and apparently it happens sometimes during the end of a cycle or the beginning of a new cycle. All of my other eggs have excellent shell quality.

Oh. That's good to know. I'm thinking my grandmother's hens must have had calcium problems big time though cuz she said it was a regular thing with hers.

The tiny egg in my picture feels empty. Never cracked it open, its just too cute. LOL. It was also her second egg that day! 1.5 eggs in one afternoon.

lol. It is very cute.

Ever seen one of these? The rare egg of a Stupid Chicken. Way to step on my first egg girls! My first egg that I waited so long and worked so hard for.

Awww! That sucks. I hope you have better luck next time.

Those are all so strange!

I have that problem with my Buff Orpington. She has a soft shell quite regularly, but they get stuck!!! Not fun....You're lucky if your hens are passing them without problems.




I'm not even sure she knows that she's even passing an egg. I find them all over the place, like she's just pooping them out...lol

That's funny stuff. I got one the other day, I havn't cracked it open yet. I think I will when I get home!

I also have had 2-3 shell less eggs. Usually they are laid during the night and broken in the morning. Luckily the pine chips make it easy to clean up.

In the first month or so of my hens laying I got about 4 of these little guys!

Got all different color eggs yesterday and was surprised to see the tiny one in the nesting box. I have found huge, double yolk eggs before but never a miniature one!

OMG. That little egg looks like a poster child for anti-bullying day, which is today.
Those big eggs look so intimidating.
Or maybe, just maybe they're all circling in for a group hug.
