Ok. So some prebiotics and Calcium from the Fodder or Pet Shop. And I forgot the D3. That's a smaller tablet. She will not mind taking that one. I don't like to upset her by pulling her waddle down every night. She does give me some funny looks. Lol. But I'll get some different Calcium Citrate...
Crushed oyster shells. She has chook seed. The seed comes from the Fodder Store. It is actually REAL chicken seed. And egg layer pellets. Long grey pellets. She has vegetables and loves cheese and a bit of chopped mince. She loves oats. And I cook them rice. She eats very well. I was dosing her...
She is not molting. It is coming into summer here in Australia. And I think she was laying soft shelled eggs since we got her. I've been giving her Calcium Citrate.
Thank you. Von
My chicken, is a Red, named Brenda. She is two. She has stopped laying eggs. When she does they are shell less. I've tried calcium and wormed her, she improved for a little bit, but now no eggs at all. What to do? I will not eat my lovely Brenda. She seems a bit sad. What to do?? All advice...
Dear Wyorp Rock,
I have treated both my girls with the worming tablets as you suggested and the Calcium Citrate. Yesterday my Brenda produced an egg with a Shell, but soft. Today she produced a lovely egg with a firm shell. It's a miracle I'm sure.😊
How long do I need to give her the calcium...
My 2 year old Red, Brenda is laying eggs without shells. She is not eating her greens or shell grit or even her egg laying seed. She seems happy but has a dirty bottom. My other chook, Phyllis is a good layer and very happy and has strong shells.
What does poor Brenda need please? They roam...
I feed them two types of seed. Plus egg shell grit. I also make up rice, and vegie offcuts. No Rhubarb leaves. They love all their veggies and rice. Sometimes I put a bit of mince in it too. There is water everywhere around the garden and in their coop.
They had been here 2 years. They were...
We have a new chook. Doris resting with my dog Oscar. Now together in God's Garden. She is young and is called Phyllis. Thank you for all your lovely messages. Some say it's just a chook. But they more than that to me. I love them to pieces. I talk to them. I cuddle them .
Haven't stopped crying yet. I will. Thank you for your lovely consoling words. I talk to all my pets, including the fish and the cat. I'm sure they understand me.
Doris will be in God's garden now.
I have to stay here and mourn my loss. God bless you sweet.🙏💜
