Soft yolks

[Windak54]

hi, new to this site. Had chickens for years I have some, but not all, of me chickens laying eggs with soft yolks. Break into skillet, yolk ruptures and spreads over pan Taste and color are fine. However, I like my eggs sunny side up so this is puzzling to me. Good food, free range lots of fresh water. Any ideas? Thanks

Do you refrigerate your eggs?

I thank you for your prompt replies. Yes, I refrigerate my eggs, but the excess are on the back deck. Not all chickens have this. It’d could be stress as my ladies sure do not like thr roosters. 15 hens and 2 roosters. I guess it is time for chicken and dumplings. Thank you all again.
