Laurie, If you separate you mess with the pecking order. I'd lightly sprinkle oyster shell on all of their feed, and add poultry vitamins with minerals and apple cider vinegar to their water. If you can get your hands on wheat, wheat helps harden up egg shells too.

Subject: [CHICKENS-101] Soft Shell Eggs
I have 10 chickens in one area. The eggs laid are all different colors. One of the white eggs is too soft. I have 2 chickens that produce white eggs. Should I separate them from the rest of the flock to give even more oyster shell to them?
