I have four black stars. They were laying just fine with an occaisional soft egg here and there. Then recently the soft eggs are coming two at a time on the board under perch in the morning. In addition I believe I have another hen laying soft eggs and even without the shell sometimes. I feed laying crumble, oyster shells, greens and roasted shells with yogurt and cottage cheese. All regularly. I have recently added some vitamin D to their water. They free range during the day. I thought perhaps they weren't getting enough feed so I cooped them up and they went nuts. Sqacking all day so the one neighbor two houses down who would rather I not have my girls, complained. I have checked for egg bound. Frankly they are happy as can be. I would just like some good solid eggs. We eat the soft shell ones. Any suggestions??? I have researched this and have no other ideas. Also DE around bathing spots and in the coop. Thank you so,
