Weird Egg

[llavine]

One of my chickens has been laying a few eggs with extra bumps…calcium??? Anyone know what this is? Is is dangerous for the hen? Is is dangerous to eat the egg inside?

Just calcium deposits, it's not dangerous for the hen or for you to eat the egg.

Thank you so much for responding. They have only been laying for 4 months and this was a first. Thanks again!

I have one that has done it hat to every egg she ever laid. She is 4 now and still clucking along as are we who eat those eggs.
