I would have posted a picture but after reviewing it you can not tell what it is. Every other day it seems like I only get 5 eggs, yesterday I wrote in saying I got 7 after looking very thoroughly through my coop, when ever I only see five eggs having 6 chicks. Well when I went out after work to check for eggs today, the first thing I spotted was something that looked like a smashed egg, but as I got closer it was like a skin of a egg, it was brown and had some mucus stuck to it, but it was in the shape of a egg, that is what I call a soft shelled egg. My chicks also all of a sudden are laying in random places and I don't know why. The day I found the seven eggs, they were all over, 1 in the poop tray,1 on top of a create, 1 in the window sill and the rest were in the nesting boxes. Is this normal? Is this something that anyone else has seen. I am still getting some pretty small eggs, but then I have one very large egg every day, could that be from the chick that is not laying every day? I wish there was a way to tell who is laying and who is not and what egg was laid by who.LOL
