Lol I can just imagine. I am glad it worked. I may have to implement that this spring. I want to let them set their own eggs.

I see a hazy ring around it as well but I think it was infertile. With most Blastoderm they look sort of like a target.Found an alarmingly thin-shelled egg out in the pen this afternoon. Had to come from one of the 2 year-old hens, wasn't there yesterday afternoon. There were two new eggs on the ground, as well as one in the little house that was there yesterday. Only one of the little hens has been laying. So either the little hen who has been laying put down 2 last night, one totally normal and one very under-shelled, or the extremely thin-shelled egg is the first egg from the little purple spalding hen. I have no way to tell which -- the spalding hen hasn't shown any indication that she's even thinking of laying, but the other two eggs were totally normal. So my guess is maybe this is the first try by the little spalding hen. Either way, I'm definitely going to send more calcium out in the feed, as this one is scary thin. Sure glad it didn't break inside her. Wow.
I cut it open with a pair of scissors (there was no way to "crack" it -- not enough shell. I don't think it was fertilized, but my eyes aren't good enough to tell. When I look at it, I can't tell if that's a hazy ring around it or not. @Birdrain92 , can you tell?
So right now, I'm chalking it up to first egg -- but I sure will be watching what's up out there the next few days!
