Hey guys,
I know this has been asked a million times but just wondering about eggs. So Nan has been laying rough eggs for about a week. I went away for 2 days and I came home to this soft egg (it was busted when I got home). My other hen Gertie has just started laying rough eggs.
So I guess what I'm wondering is could this be from stress? 5 days ago I tried to join them with another hen who has 6 seven week old babes. 4 days ago I started oiling them for scaly leg mites. They absolutely have enough calcium, they eat layer pellets, they have oyster shell available, and I roughly crush their egg shells which they eat so it can't be a lack of calcium..
Any tips?
