Mealworms for older hens

[Viksceeks]

I'm obsessed with dried mealworms!
My old hen is a great layer but her egg shells were starting to be thin. After trying oyster shell, dried egg shells, and layer pellets I thought she was just boomed to have flimsy shells
Until I tried mealworms
I thought they were just for treats. Boy was I wrong!! Her shells are nice and firm, backyard chicken quality. I'm so glad she's back to normal!

Very interesting! I suppose mealworms have shells on them too.
