    Good eye. We have two Easter eggers but one of them lays very thin shelled eggs that seldom survive. And the other one isn’t much better.

      Aw, shame. I’ve found feeding mine eggshells helps their shells thicken, but I don’t know how much that would help yours. Tell them I said hello!

        There is no shortage of shells for them to eat. My wife will scramble or hard boil and mash a bunch of the reject eggs, shells and all, and feed them to the birds.
