Boybeck Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I have noticed that the eggs from my three chickens have much harder shells than shop bought ones. The hardness often suprises people when they come to crack them. Do you find this? I presume it's a good thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 That is certainly a good thing . I have the opposite problem with shells that break with a tiny tap . I'm giving mine limestone flour to try to get them hard again . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 It's quite surprising when you go to crack an egg isn't it? I think it's a good thing, they are having a good diet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boybeck Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 I'm glad it means they are healthy. It's nice to know they are happy chickens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
