    Concerns with New Layer

    Multiple feeders/ports, and OS holders, are always a good thing. 3 ports(or more) for 13 birds would be good....adjust the height, or use bricks for steps, for smaller birds. I made two of these for OS and egg shells: https://www.backyardchickens.com/gallery/oyster-plastic-jar.7897731/

    Concerns with New Layer

    Which of those two feeds get eaten up faster? I just feed a 20% all flock with OS in a separate feeder. No treats except for daily minimal scratch while cleaning coop.

    Concerns with New Layer

    Tho I have tried Calcium Citrate with VitD-3 on a long term softie layer(it didn't help), I'm pretty slow to start with supplements.

    Concerns with New Layer

    I do all exams off the roost at night after dark, wearing a headlight. They are much easier to 'catch' then. So Opal is older than the listed? What all and how exactly are you feeding?

    Concerns with New Layer

    How old are they all in weeks or months? It's really hard to say who laid the funkies. You might need to stalk the nests to catch them in the act before panicking. Some exams may be in order. https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/who-is-laying-and-who-is-not-butt-check.73309/
