Stress and disease can cause hens to have complications laying eggs causing them to become egg bound as well as cause deformities of the eggs.





Multiple colors and shapes of eggs from various species.


 
Green and blue colored eggs can be a sign of stress in Blue Breasted quail. Usually odd colored eggs shells are fairly thin.



This tuxedo colored chick has what is often referred to as splayed legs. When he hatched he fell of the hatching shelf onto a flat metal ledge. The fall was short and not harmful but the chick was not able to grip the metal shelf and displaced his hips. The second picture is after his legs were bandaged in an effort to correct the displacement.
