mange Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 my lovely chicken Dolly usually produces light brown eggs, but has started to lay much lighter eggs. The shells are nice and hard but have no sheen to them any more they feel quite rough. The whites seems to have a slight cottage cheese texture when poached too!!!!. Any ideas as to what might have affected her eggies???? The only change to her normal free range lifestyle is a different brand of layers mash..... her new friend turkey lurkies eggs are still perfect! (On same Food) many thanks chook lovers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Maybe the weather is affecting her eggs? The shells/contents do change with age, but unsure how old she is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
