Very normal! Until they get into a proper rythmn, you can expect laying to be quite hit and miss with maybe the odd soft shelled egg, wind egg, miss a day or two at a time. They will soon settle into a routine when their system is fully 'in gear'!.

Not a wind egg then Astraman, a wind egg is very small but is all white, no yolk!
