Funny Looking Eggs

Recommended Posts

Hello, over the last few days we have started getting some funny looking eggs.

 

They are bigger than usual and look a bit deformed (slightly lumpy) and have what look like cracks in the shell. They are pretty freaky!! Does anyone have any ideas?

 

They also seem to be laying slightly less - we were getting one egg per chicken every single day now it is a bit hit or miss.

 

Should I be worried about either of these things??

 

Thanks

I've had all manor of funny looking eggs over the years. The torpedo ones I used to get when they'd had a fright after fireworks night were especially funny. I've had probably every picture on the Omlet strange eggs page....

If you are getting less eggs, it may be worth worming them as a precaution or perhaps giving less treats and sticking to pellets as that can affect egg production.
