Not laid in years but wants to

[Drumstick63]

My barred rock who hasn’t laid a egg in close to two years is going crazy wanting to lay, she is laying in the nesting box for hours a few days a week and is looking around and pecking feathers and other items on the ground and throwing them behind her in the yard, what can I do for her ??

Try giving her a human calcium citrate supplement daily

Or crushed oyster shells if you can find any at your local feed store.

How would it be administered ? Would fake eggs do any good ?

She gets that in her feed but if she eats it I don’t know

As long as she has access to it that’s good, she will eat it if she needs it.

Just pop the tablet right into her beak.

How old is she? Why did she stop laying in the first place?

What is the mg of the pill ? She’s old now and stopped laying

600mg would be good.
