Best Answer

Adding calcium/ crushed shells to their diet will help, you can also buy a water soluble tonic to add to their water that will give them the optimum amounts of vitamins and mineral they need to produce hard egg shells. Young hens will produce the hardest egg shells and older hens at the end of their laying years will often start to lay soft/ rubbery eggs.

To hard boil an egg, add it to boiling water for five minutes. Three and a half minutes for soft boiled.
