When you crack these eggs is there a yoke or is it mostly white with small pieces of tissue? In an established layer these eggs generally form when small pieces of tissue shed from the reproductive tract and an egg forms around them because the body detects those pieces and thinks it's a yolk.
 
Curious if this bird is just coming back into lay after molting and winter break?
