Thin eggshells from day one

[rosemarysugar]

I have a chicken that has always had super thin eggshells. She has constant access to two types of calcium in addition to the layer feed but the eggs are never strong. Any idea what's going on?

What breed is this chicken? We use oyster shells for most of our flocks calcium.

Buff orpington. We use oyster shell and I also feed their eggshells back to them.

I give her eggshells and oyster shell as well.

I have that exact same problem with my EE hen. In the past I’ve given them just plain Greek yogurt and she lays solid and thicker shelled eggs for the few days following.
