Tiny Egg??

[beachnutx6]

I found this itty bitty egg in my chicken run this morning. I haven't cracked it yet, but I can tell there is something "loose" in there. Any reason why this would happen? It has a rough shell, but one of my hens lays eggs like that. The picture makes it look bigger than it is. I just put a regular egg next to it for comparison but it can't be more than 1.5 inches long.

Any bantam breeds in your flock?

Nope. I have 8 that are almost a year old.

It happens, nothing to worry about. I had a buff orp that would lay one of those about once a month. She did this all her life, a little egg and then normal eggs for a month or so.
