Will a predator attack cause a young hen to stop laying?

You can give her tablets for humans which you will find in the vitamins & minerals isle of your grocery store.
Just sit her on your lap her head facing forward, grab her wattles with one hand and pull down until she opens her beak, immediately pop the tablet into her beak and let go of her wattles so she can swallow.
Repeat every evening until her eggs have a proper eggshell.

Since she eats all of her eggs right away, I don't know if she has improper egg shells. What if her calcium is fine and it is behavioral problems that are causing the egg eating... is it still safe to give her calcium tablets?

It will be safe if it is just given for a few days.

Do you know at around what time of the day she is laying? You could join her and watch until the egg is laid. Or install a coop/nest box camera.

I have no idea what time she usually lays.
