Re: [CHICKENS-101] bumpy eggs with thin shells

 

Do they have enough calcium?  I grind up my egg shells and feed them back to the chickens with their feed.    ACV in their water may be a boost for them also.  Not much help, but good luck.  Are they young chickens?  Susan

Hi guys! haven't been around in a while, no news is good news!! All is well except for the last few weeks I've had one of my girls laying eggs that have a bumpy-gritty build up on the narrow end of the egg, and the shells are so thin that they are broken about 99% of the time when I go to collect. This is only one girl...any thoughts?? the bumps range from tiny round grains of sand-to larger barnacles.
thanks for any info!
