Perhaps a related problem is the tendency of other chickens in our small flock to break eggs and eat them. We've tried to improve the calcium content of our feed provided to our chickens, but it seems too coarse and they seem to avoid it.

The breed producing these eggs is a 'Delaware" — a smaller red chicken that lays a very large egg.
 
Welcome to BYC!

What and how exactly are you feeding?
How did you "improve the calcium content"?
