lynnehd, she's doing better on a health note, thanks for asking. But she's not laying normally. I've slowly backed her off the calcium glutomate and she's now on none, but she lays only about every 5 days or so and always a shell-less egg. Since she was a retired organic layer (red sex link) we have no idea how old she really is, and I'm chalking it up to age. Unless she magically recovers, but I'm not holding my breath. I haven't treated her for the shell-less laying... wondering if maybe I should do epsom salt baths... the risk of infection is, I'm sure, high. So far she's active, eating and drinking normally, no other symptoms at all.
