She is 3 I believe, or will be 3 next month. She is a bantam hen, and it seems the small birds don't live as long as the larger birds, or that's just what I believe. Her eggs have a thin shell, when I crack the bumpy egg the shell almost crumbles. I have been giving the birds extra calcium since this started, but it hasn't stopped her from laying these odd bumpy eggs. I eat these eggs myself, I don't give them to other people like I do with most of my eggs, as they just look odd... <br />~LynnRazzberry Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17644607616585345473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1353764878995672966.post-67909972194839845372012-09-23T10:52:00.301-07:002012-09-23T10:52:00.301-07:00we get some like that from time to time.... someti...we get some like that from time to time.... sometimes you just get a crazy egg. :-DOhiofarmgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02606563929369721111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1353764878995672966.post-27290166915692700452012-09-22T19:21:30.839-07:002012-09-22T19:21:30.839-07:00Bobbi Jo - The whole egg is full of ridges and wri...Bobbi Jo - The whole egg is full of ridges and wrinkles, it is thick and heavy too.<br /><br />Mary Ann - This hen just turned three and this is her 2nd full year of laying.
