Sarahsausage Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 One of my friends chooks laid an egg yesterday with no shell, is this a sign of illness or just a blip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Soft shelled eggs are quite common, especially in young hens who have just started laying. If it is in an older hen you may suggest that she cuts down on any treats to ensure the chooks are eating their nutritious pellets and also make sure they have access to plenty of grit.
