Tiny egg?

[Cnjecker]

Collected eggs today and noticed the little guy on the right in the nesting box? Could this have came from one of the hens or has another creature managed to lay in the coop? Has this happened to anyone else?

I cracked it an it is looks a normal egg, just… tiny. I poked it (ha!) and it feels gelatinous.

Normal for a new layer. Fart egg.

This isn’t her first egg though. That’s why I am a tad concerned. Could a fart egg happen although it’s not early in their laying timeline?

Yes it can happen. How old is she?
