Squishy egg?

[Mamato6]

What does a squishy egg mean? If it makes a difference it’s from a 6 month old new layer

Just means this was an off day in the shell gland

Basically that she didn't get it quite right. Make sure she has oyster shell free choice

This is what we like to call... A rubber egg!!!

Basically, your chicken just didn't lay it right. This could be because of a lack of calcium, so supply crushed oyster shells or crushed eggshells just in case.

We do have oyster shells but I’ll leave them in different places

Lol rubber egg! We do have oyster shells but I’ll save the egg shells when we have eggs as well!

Glad to see that this can happen, I just found my first "rubber" egg this morning, and it really surprised me. I think it surprised my hen too, as it was left under the roost and not in the nest box as it usually is.
