First off; excuse the amount of poop on the poop board. Today is cleaning day. So, I had gone through a period where I definitely gave my flock of 9 way too much kale. I had issues of soft sheets for a while. I vowed to not supplement with anything until that was straightened out. Then I gave them a small amount of veggie scraps and then this happened. I also make sure to buy the Purine layer food with added oyster shells AND I feed them their own shells for extra calcium. I also was giving them a couple splashes of apple cider vinegar in the water. But it looked like it was rusting the galvanized waterer, so I didn't add it last water change.
Should giving them only a smallish amount of scraps cause this? Even with all the extra calcium they have access to? I'm stumped. I want to give them greens and scraps, but I don't want to be harming their egg production wither. Any ideas?
