What is wrong with this egg!!!!

[Show Sebright]

So huge compared to a bread box.......tight space for 4 birds, they might be crabby.

I am a bit confused. Are you saying my coop is to small? Sorry I am just confused.

I am a bit confused. Are you saying my coop is to small? Sorry I am just confused.

A common space guideline for standard-sized chickens is 4 square feet of space PER BIRD in the coop (the place they sleep, lay eggs, and stay inside when it is cold or rainy). And 10 more square feet of space PER BIRD in the run (an outdoor space where they can spend time in the daytime.)

can fit 6 bird with 2 square feet outside and 1 square feet inside.

So that is 6 square feet inside, and 12 square feet outside. Much less than the 16 square feet inside, 40 square feet outside that would be recommended.

Sorry, I was playing with words..... yes, your coop is too small and could be causing stress which can cause weird eggs.

Ok, I don’t know if I am measuring this right because my coop is extremely big. can someone tell me how to Measure it to find the square feet? I guess you guys know that brown coop at tractor supply? My coop for
my girls is similar in size (mine is bigger). The coop I am referencing is in the picture below. PS: I am know to standard size chickens. Here are some pictures or them in their coop.
