    I don't think I can! I have never picked them up and they don't let me touch them! I would not know what or how to administer the pill! That's why I crush it and hide it in her food.

    I crush it up and sprinkle it over a teaspoonful of peas. I then put it into a plastic bowl and she eats it but there is a bit left so I add it to the water.

    Yes. That would be 350mg, though I know she isn't getting all of it because there is some left but I do put the remaining in her water.

    Oh my, ummmm, maybe 4 pounds. They are spoiled so could be a tad more.

    I will :) I think I should give her a whole pill (650mg) because I just found a soft egg but not rubber. I think she is not getting the full amount and by giving her the whole pill, that may help? Do you give Vitamin D? I so appreciate all your help you've given me! :) :)

    Thanks you for checking! She hasn't been distressed in the slightest, though only one eggs since the first. It wasn't as hard either. I am continuing giving her calcium and cutting way back on the treats, which makes her eat her layer crumble more. Is there anything more I should do? :) It's...

    Great news!! I gave CarolAnne some calcium citrate and yesterday she laid an egg that was hard! Not completely hard as it should be, but hard all the same!! :) :) I'm thinking by today it will be even harder! What a wonderful Thanksgiving this is! I want to thank you all for helping me and...

    I just bought calcium citrate in pill form. How much is enough to give? Each half pill is 350mg. Do I crush this up and give a tiny pinch? Thanks!! :)

    I just bought calcium citrate and it is in pill form @ 315mg each half. How doI know how much to give? A very small pinch?

    I can give it a try. They seem to not like gooey food of any kind but I'm desperate at this point! LOL :)
