Chortle Chook Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 One of my chickens (I'm not sure which) has been laying neat little creamy coloured eggs which look very nice from the outside, but when I hard boil them, though the yolk goes hard, the white seems to remain a funny sort of translucent colour and semi soft consistency. It is rather putting me off my girls' lovely eggs. Does anyone know what might cause this? The eggs in question were about 1 week old, no more.
