One of the primary reasons for soft egg shells is a lack of calcium in the hen’s diet.

Laying hens need a large amount of calcium to form eggshells. Calcium deficiency in diets will produce thin or soft eggs. A chicken eats 50g-70g of feed per day, and the utilization rate of calcium in the feed is only 60%. The calcium in the feed is not enough.
