Thank you @CTKen that page is really interesting, she regularly lays eggs with wrinkles so it's interesting to read about the possible causes. Thank you for Your help.

Thank you everyone for your kind help and suggestions, scruffy has woken up this morning full of the joys of spring, running round putting all the girls in line and shouting at me. Fingers crossed it was just a glitch. Thanks again!

Love love love these, very beautiful!
