Hi! How old? What are you feeding them?

I would dose with calcium citrate, generic brand from Wal Mart or pharmacy.

What are you feeding? Are they getting a layer feed and do you have crushed oyster shell in a separate container for them? I would limit any extras, keeping them on chicken feed. For the one with a poor appetite, try some soft scrambled egg. She can have calcium citrate with D, 300-600 mg tablet given orally. Corid dosage is 2 tsp per gallon of the liquid for 5-7 days.
