One of my girls laid a torpedo shaped egg the day after we had suffered high winds, so  I put it down to shock, not sure if thats right but it seemed to make sense

sometimes you do get odd eggs especially if they have been disturbed. :)
Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted!!

The pigment is the last bit to be added in the process.  So after the shell is formed the covering is applied (colour)

Some times this dosnt go well for any number of reasons!

Nothing to worry about though!
