Soft Shelled Eggs

May 6th, 2009 .

This morning when I opened the coop up and let the girls out there were 2 very strange looking eggs on the coop floor. One of them was like a normal egg but a bit squashed looking, and the other was small and very pointy. When I picked them up they had soft shells. I was going to take a picture of them to show you but unfortunately they split open in my hand so I had to just put them in the bin.

I’m not too concerned about this – the fact that there were 2 of them makes me think that this is not a calcium deficiency, but that they were soft because whoever laid them laid 2 eggs in one go. I think it was the grey one that laid them.
