Regular egg and mini soft egg?

[Katejc]

As far as I know, these 2 were laid at the same time! Prior to this, about 2 days ago she spent half a day in the nesting box with no results and nothing since until now. The small one has no shell. She’s about 22 weeks and she has been laying for 4 weeks now pretty consistently.

The smaller one is 'soft'?
They look like they came from 2 different birds.

Yep its just the membrane and less than half the size

Do you have only one chicken near laying age?

I have a bantam silkie but she never goes in the laying box and she also laid a regular egg today

Not unusual for a second egg in a day to be soft....odd color tho.

Tell us about that large egg, is it beige?

Her regular eggs are like a mint green but more on the grey side. Not sure what she is. We think american game mix. She has laid a soft egg before but I cant remember the color.

Do you still have both of these eggs?

What do you feed your flock?

I still have both. I feed them chicken feed at 15%, oyster shell, sesame seeds & sunflower seeds. Its dead of winter so they are stuck inside so I have been supplementing with greens, blueberries and I gave them a fish carcass the other day (cooked)
