In the span of just over a week, I have gotten 2 soft shelled eggs. The first time this happened, I stopped giving all my chickens (3 of them) their small portions of sunflower seeds and mealworm treats and kept them on their lay mash only, supplemented by chicken friendly yogurt for calcium. All 3 have been laying normal eggs. Then, today I found another soft shell egg! Today all chickens have laid normal eggs. All acting just fine. What's with the soft eggs? Any tips? I haven't seen any increased predator activity, there are multiple feed and water stations that are refilled often, they are supplied with grit and oyster shell, and no fights going on. What could be happening?
