cluckbok Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Rosie our Columbian Blacktail laid a really wrinkly egg today. Is this a sign of calcium deficiency? I did give the hens baked egg shells and they've always got grit in their pot in the run. Anything else I could do to hard and smooth the shells out? She's been fine otherwise.

Redwing Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I'd treat it as a one off and see what she lays next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chick wiggle Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 One of my girls laid a very wrinkly egg, i was so worried that i posted a picture of it on here, My mind was immediately put at rest by the wonderful wise ones on here and it was a one off, one of those things. So dont worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 They often lay wrinkly eggs after the have a shock. I had wrinkly eggs galore after a military aircraft training session that passed over my house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
