    HELP! Broken egg inside hen?

    Just today I went out to visit my hens and found one sitting on the roost in our coop.

    Broken eggs

    I recently got chickens and the past two days found a broken egg in the egg box. The broken eggs are the only ones they've laid. How do I know it they're egg eating or if its thin shells? Would more bedding help?? What's causing these broken eggs??

    Is this a problem?

    We had a hawk attack yesterday. I believe only one hen was injured so she’s inside the house mending. Other two are out in the coop/run. So obviously yesterday was very stressful. Today is gorgeous weather so there even more upset being locked up than they would be. They went on a food strike...
