You need to crack it open then measure the outside of it with a ruler in millimeters. OR you could use a micrometer.

the shell of an egg
This is an egg that can be in a shell and out of a shell.
The shell thickness and texture changes with the vitamins and minerals the hen receives. That is why that if an egg gets broken they will consume not only the egg but also the egg shell. In the past farmers would save their egg shells from the kitchen, dry them out and crush them to be fed back to the hens.

Yes, a fresh egg typically has a tougher shell than an older egg. As an egg ages, the protective coating on the shell wears off, making it more vulnerable to breakage. This is why fresh eggs are often more difficult to crack.

Egg shell actually has very little to do with the flavour of the egg. It is, however, important, as a thin egg shell results in eggs that will crack easily and cannot be sold. If an egg shell is too thick, the chicken must eat a lot more calcium to make the shell, and producers need to pay a lot more money to feed this to them. Note that the thickness of an egg shell is based on the genetics of the hen, and simply feeding them less calcium will result in eggs that have deformed or uneven shells. These shells can also be the result of illness, and render the eggs unsaleable due to consumers not wanting eggs that "don't look good".
