Wrinkled egg

[hannahselby94]

Anyone know why the top of my eggs look like this? They’re still hard and only like that on the top

Are the shells soft?

Are the shells soft?

Nope.

 

[Grits&Eggs]

what is the breed? how old are they?

 

[hannahselby94]

About 6 months, could be black sex link or light Brahma

 

[guardianoftheflock]

Nope.

Hmmm. I had soft and wrinkly eggs once... I honestly think that it might just be the make-up of the egg. Have they always laid eggs like that?

My eggs look like that sometimes. I get different calcium deposits from time to time. Could be it sat a bit longer as it was forming~they work really hard to push those eggs out.
I’ve even had a flat band on the egg where it looks like she “rested” while pushing and the muscles left a mark.
My leghorn is unique she sometimes lays a heavier calcium deposit just on the fat end. It happens it seems to be apart of her cycle.

It is nature of the beast some do sometimes don't

Just a shell gland anomaly.
Some birds may do this consistently or just occasionally.
Nothing to worry about.
