Should I be worried? Was my duck egg bound and she cleared it? I have four ducks who are all a year old. So far they have been healthy and have had no health issues.

Can you get pictures of the yellow stuff under it?I found this in my coop this morning and I'm totally baffled. It looks like the world's largest and softest egg shell? Kinda? There was a smaller identical pile next to it.

I have been getting more soft shelled eggs than ever before, about three weeks ago I started feeding them large amounts of oyster shells but nothing seems to of changed. I’m not sure if maybe they are eating the shells or…?It might of been just a soft egg from lack of calcium
Crush up some calcium pills and sprinkle them into the feedI have been getting more soft shelled eggs than ever before, about three weeks ago I started feeding them large amounts of oyster shells but nothing seems to of changed. I’m not sure if maybe they are eating the shells or…?
Good idea! Thanks!Crush up some calcium pills and sprinkle them into the feed
Hmm I definitely could if I knew what hen laid it but I have four and I have zero idea which lady made that mess. Are there any other symptoms I might watch out for? I'm a newish duck owner so I'm not super well versed in duck vet knowledge yet.I suspect that the hen that laid that has a reproductive tract infection. Can you take her to a vet?
