What is this? A lash egg?

Came home from work and went out to check on the ladies and collect eggs. They are almost 7 months old. My BO laid in the nest box then I found my WTB's egg in the run covered with small droplets of yolk. I found this strange being out in the run and not in the nest box with a broken egg. She usually lays 6-7 days straight before taking a break. She took a break Friday laid Saturday then another break Sunday then laid today. While I was raking out the run I found this... seems to have a tiny yolk at the very end, no shell found. I checked her vent and don't feel anything inside and nothing looks out of the ordinary.

Not a lash egg. If you cut those open, they look like layers of paint on a paint stiring stick you've used for 10 years. That is a malformed egg. New layers will sometimes do this and should straighten itself out.
Ty, cuz that and her regular egg came out the same day and was a bit worrying
