Hey everyone, its been a while since I have gone on BYC but today I have a new question waiting to be answered
One of my chickens, Bubbles, has been laying strange looking eggs which are a lot more 'strange' looking then what others would call 'strange.' My questions are, why is this happening? How can I stop it from looking like that?
Here is some information:
Chicken: Not sure about the age since we got them from a friend. Skinniest among other chickens and has been laying these types of eggs for at least 3 days.
Egg: The egg is a normal size compared to others but the colour is much paler. Lines of the shell seem to be coming out and a tint of red on each of those lines. Lines go all around the eggs.
Sorry that there is no photo. I have taken some photos and hopefully I can manage to put this on. But for the mean time, if people know what I mean, please reply
Thank you!!! ~
EDIT: I have just been searching on the web and found a picture that looks like it

The egg on the right looks like it but it has more of a red tint on the lines and more stronger lumps...
