What is going on? Anyone with any advice would be welcome. It is very hard trying to find the one(s) who are breaking the eggs. I know that it is bad for chickens to get a taste for eggs.

We're actually looking to buy a few chickens 4 layin eggs. Know where we can get some? We live in the Loule area. Lots of people have suggested the market, but they have stopped allowing people to sell them there for some reason.
