Our hens eggs our coming out with grit stuff all over out side need to know how to make them slick ?

That's a great question for turkey people. You can find turkey threads to post on if you go to the
"Other backyard poultry" forum - above. Did they just start laying? If so it may be like chickens where it takes awhile for their system to work the kinks out.

Hello and Welcome To BYC! X2 on drumstick diva's suggestion of try posting on the Turkey forum for help https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/20/turkeys the rough shells are more common in chickens that are new layers, so maybe it is the same in turkeys, here is a link to a chart that talks about reasons why chickens lay them http://www.thepoultrysite.com/publications/1/egg-quality-handbook/17/sandpaper-or-rough-shells

Welcome to BYC!

Yes, I agree with the above posters, could be because they are new to laying and once they get their egg machines in gear, the quality of the egg will improve. Definitely post this question in the Turkey section for the Turkey experts to help you with this.

Welcome to our flock and enjoy yours!
