So my barred rock silkie cross started laying about a month ago. It was thin shelled but I thought nothing of it cuz she had just started, but now the eggs are constantly thin sometimes one side is almost shell less and the other is thin. Everyone else has good shells even the other pullet her age they all get Purina flock Raiser and have free choice oyster shell. She doesn't lay very often but also has very thin membrane and no aircell no matter how long the egg is on the counter. Os there anything to help her or should I just let it be?

She probably isn't eating the oyster shell. Have you considered switching to a layer type feed? If not I highly recommended you consider switching.
