Snowy Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Hi, it is quite normal for them to have a few odd eggs when they first come into lay, especially soft/thin shelled eggs. Give her a couple of weeks and she should be laying perfect eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
