soft shelled egg

[No More Empty Nest]

One of my pullets laid a soft shelled egg yesterday an I thought I'd just show anyone who's never seen one...I'd never seen one either.
They've just been laying for about a month now so I'm chalking it up to a new layer glitch in the system. They have plenty of calcium available, are not stressed, and nobody looks sick.

It was leathery feeling and when I opened it up it had 2 yolks and little to no white. The white in the opened up picture is the soft shell.

I wish this was a better picture but I took it and failed to look at it before I threw away the egg.

They have oyster shell available all the time, but if this is from the one I think it's from, she's been laying an egg every day for 3 weeks so maybe she's low. She did not lay one today. All my pullets are bantams, EEs and a cochin. I think it's the cochin. How much calcium for a bantam?
I had been giving them scrambled egg every so often but haven't in a while. I'll give some again. They love it.

Not necessarily......first ask....
What all and how exactly are you feeding?

All flock with oyster shell left out. They're all laying normal eggs again, that was the only soft one
