We have been experiencing thin and soft shells in our flock and recently lost one of our hens to peritonitis as a result. We took one of our hens to the vet yesterday because she laid a soft shelled egg. Our birds get calcium and their bone density on X-ray is very good. The vet did bloodwork and found low phosphorus levels. I feed a layer formula and am wondering what anyone can recommend for better phosphorus/calcium balance.
