Comment on The way this egg peels in infuriating
mangobanana@discuss.online 3 days agoI have chickens, and steam eggs in a steamer pot on the stove, but these kind of eggs when they didn’t peel right is from an old chicken. Something to do with membrane is not great on them

How old are your girls?
Mine are just turning two and it’s my first flock…I’d gotten some soft-shell eggs lately (which are surprisingly durable), but that’s about it.

You might need to get some oyster shells. They might not be getting enough calcium. Especially young hens need it sometimes.
