chickinboy Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hi all, I found a yolk in the house first thing this morning. My four have been laying for about 3-5 weeks. Is this just a blip whilst the find their feet? There hasn't been anything wrong with any of the other eggs, all with strong shells, and gradually getting bigger. The other thing I was thinking was that if one layed really early in the morning, they may have eaten the shell and white whilst still in the house- but I let them out at 7am, and I've never known them to lay before 10am. Hope this isn't a bad thing.....they all seem perky as ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ted Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 This has happened to me - advice I got was not to worry too much but keep an eye on them. I had a few soft eggs after and one got egg bound. lack of calcium. A boost of lime flour and all back to normal... Should be ok just keep an eye on them... cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 It will be just a blip probably as they are quite new to it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
