    Calcium Citrate Question

    I’m in the US, I’m just 90 minutes from Walmart. I looked at ingredients in the Equate brand, it’s the same in terms of magnesium stearate being listed, as the one I’m looking at on Amazon, so I’ll go ahead and order. Thank you!

    Calcium Citrate Question

    I’m looking for calcium with d3 right now, but most brands have some form of magnesium in them, listed under “other ingredients”. Any recommendations on what is acceptable and what’s not? What brands? I’m looking on Amazon.

    Soft shelled eggs AND crop not emptying HELP!

    I managed to get her to take some crushed tums in eggs, but she was hesitant. The only thing she has really wanted to eat is a few black soldier fly larvae. I don’t know how much to try to get her to eat, considering her crop won’t go down. I’m massaging it often. Not sure what else to do. My...

    Disinfecting new but used coop

    I believe the previous took good care of her birds, the coop is mostly dusty, more than anything. I’ve had people tell me they would never move their birds to a used coop and that I’m taking a huge risk. Obviously, I don’t want my birds to become ill from any diseases that I’m not aware of...

    Disinfecting new but used coop

    I do not have knowledge of health of previous flock. I’m just being cautious. There will be approximately 2 1/2 to 3 months time between last flock being there, and my flock moving in.

    Disinfecting new but used coop

    Correct, OSB is not waterproof and is prone to swelling… it’s very common for OSB in new construction to get rained on prior to a house being roofed, obviously drying it out is important. The OSB I’m referring to is not outside, only inside. As for pictures, not sure how they would determine if...
