Where's the shell?!

Mt 2 year old wyandotte has been a pretty consistent layer. One pretty little egg every other morning. But this afternoon she plopped a surprise in the nest. A smaller than normal rubbery egg. She seems healthy and has had no recent changes in diet. I am hoping that this egg was just a fluke. Is there anything I should keep an eye out for? Crossing my fingers for a nice hard egg on Friday.

Just happens sometimes, stress or loud disturbances can cause it too, they lay the egg before it's ready.

Until/unless it becomes routine it's nothing to worry about - even seasoned layers can produce these now and then.
