What do you do with an egg-eater?

I have an egg- eating chicken. My chickens have plenty of space, they are free-range, and have water and food. What do you do with an egg-eater? Does the golf ball in the nest box work?

Thank you! That is helpful, maybe they need more protein.

Up their protein, collect eggs frequently and put some golf balls in the nesting box.

Very irritating problem to have huh!!

IF I think a girl, or rooster is eating good eggs, I place said bird in private quarters with a good egg. IF the egg is broken and eaten, so is the bird, I have not had to butcher a single bird for egg eating,, yet.
