poachedegg Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Gladys has been a little off lay the last couple of weeks, sometimes a softie, sometimes nothing, one perfect size, but the shell was white (rather than brown) and very rough. Today she laid a tiny one, so out of interest we cracked it and there was only white, no yolk!! We have had Gladys since April and until a couple of weeks ago was a normal layer.....seen softies before but not this, any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chucknette Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Hi The tiny eggs are called wind eggs or witches eggs, they are nothing to worry about They look quite sweet dont you think? You could do the limestone flour and codliver oil to help with the softies to make her feel more comfortable. Best wishes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Did you weigh it? It might have qualified for the Omlet Small Egg Leader Board . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
