Shell less eggs

The hen that laid is roughly 20 weeks old. We got some adult chickens from someone that could no longer have them and they lay with no problem. This is my first year getting chicks. I got so excited cause we have a couple roosters that I hatched two different batches. It’s been fun, just a lot to learn as new stuff comes up.

I'd not worry to much, as others have said, just a early layer, she'll sort it out, I've gotten eggs from the size of a nickel to shell-less from mine.. nothing to worry about .
 
My light brown leghorn laid a shell-less egg. Her first was normal, then her 2nd she’ll-less. I failed to get a picture of it before, but my kids thought it would be fun to open it up, we cut it open, and it seemed as though there was a smaller shell-less egg within! We cut that, and put cam a tiny yolk! Pretty neat!
That was two days ago, and hasn’t laid any since. But like the others have said, I’m just assuming she’s getting her system worked out. I just found it very interesting because I’ve never had any of my other pullets lay she’ll-less.

My shell less came from a brown leghorn as well. I have only gotten two other ones, but I do have 3 leghorns so I wonder if they all laid one cause now all my eggs are just fine.
