hello there ,
I recall reading about somebody who was a vet , specialized in chickens .I can not recall their name .
Question my hens 5 , all lay eggs , but one has a dirty as^&& , one also lays very strange eggs , the shell
is very light coloured , a rough surface , and the shape is very rough ,not like an egg should be , poited and misformed .
I feed them crushed grain and corn in the morning and grinded layers feed in the evening ,inbetween the roam the land for food
and get the occasional pickings they steal from the rabbits , dogs , cat and my children .
Anyone got an idea what's wrong ,?
regards
Paul

mucky bum does hint at worms.. so worming her would be a good start.
