Two soft eggs at once

Hi, I've had a look through the posts and don't see this one. I'm hoping its the usual POL thing and her system settling down to egg laying.
One of my hens was fine this morning then mid afternoon she went very quiet and was obviously uncomfortable. Then she laid a shell-less egg (just a very fine layer of shell). she seemed a bit better but not quite right then 10 mins later laid another, this time small and with no shell. She now seems to be OK.
Not too unusual I hope.

From what I understand, hens have a few eggs "on the go" at a time and it's nothing to worry about if they lay two shell-less ones in a go, especially if it's a POL that's doing it as they can take a while to settle down.

Thanks, that is what I thought. She seems to be as fit as a fiddle this morning and is eating for England!
