quickcluck Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 We got 8 1/2 eggs today!!!! this means some of our orps or Maisie has started to lay. It's really strange and feels like a balloon! I've put it next to a normal egg here to see the contrast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol U Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 When you say "it feels like a baloon", do you mean it's soft? If so, I think it's just a soft shelled egg which they all do from time to time. A couple of mine did this when they came back into lay after Christmas.

suebee Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Our hens laid a few in the beginning. As long as they were intact, and not ruptured or leaky, we ate them. Was strange to snip into an egg with scissors instead of cracking it open! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
