Soft Egg

[jwalters15]

We have a two year old golden comet that has laid a couple soft shelled eggs. We were able to pin point her today and gave her a look over. She appears to be of otherwise good health. Could this uptick in heat be messing with her?

It is layer

Ah, okay.
As @Auntiejessi3 suggested, I'd get some calcium citrate. Make sure it has D3 in it too though, and at least 500mg of calcium.
Give one tablet once a day for...lets say a week, and see how she's doing then.

Any brand recommendations or links?

Walmart, cvs, Walgreens, dollar general, they all have cheap versions

What is their diet?

Get some calcium citrate and give her 1 tablet a day for a few days

No, I mean it doesn't really matter what brand, and it's quite easy to find.

How's your hen doing? Any more shell-less eggs?
