He is the same age as Otis! How do you like having him so far?

It's great! He is as friendly as the average rabbit, maybe more so, and SO soft.

Hey guys, one of our Brahma hens has been laying soft-shell and thin-shelled eggs. Is there anything we can do for her? Everyone else is laying just fine, she's the only one having problems.

You could give some calcium orally. I give ~50 mg per pounds once or twice a day for a few days.

Okay, any specific brands? Powder or liquid? She was laying really well and the past two days she's had these troubles.

Should we give her some supplemental Vitamin D also?
