they're quiet soft at first so that it is easy for the chicken to lay but not so soft that they'll squish or any thing. but after about a week of the chick growing they begin to get harder and are soon ready to collect.

hope this helped

If the egg came first then who laid it?

FACT: The egg did come first. & no one, or no thing laid the egg. God put it on this earth just like he put you and I on here.Answer:Evolution works in such a way that the traits leading up to "chicken -ness" can be present in both parents without them being (technically) chickens. When they mate the genes can recombine to provide the offspring (in the egg) with all the genes to be a chicken. So the parents are not technically chickens, the embryo is a chicken and grows to be a chicken. The chicken comes first. Yes this means the egg the first chicken comes from is not a chicken's egg. All eggs from the first chicken are then chicken's eggs.
