dkosh, I am pretty new to chickens but I have heard people say hatchery birds have more of those kinds of problems. Do you find that to be true or does it matter?

My Delaware laid 2 of those shell less eggs when she started laying. We got her first perfect shelled egg today!

I've been raising hatchery chickens for 4 years and have between 250-300 chickens at any given time. I've only had one chicken die from this so in my opinion I don't feel that it had anything to do with it being a hatchery bird. I'm sure others may have different opinions.
