Ahh I read an it about possible vitamin deficiency. Would the probiotics and electrolytes you get in the packets help at all? I have been offering a crumble 22% protein with added vitamins and minerals. Will post pic of nutrition label. That does makes sense though how it came on suddenly and that they seem fine otherwise. Let me know what you think of the info in the food I've been giving them. Oh also I offer grit every few days. Should I offer daily or less or how often would you recommend?

I give grit and oyster shell free choice all the time.

Ahh so it's off on a few things. So how can I get them the boost they need quicker than changing feeds?

Beef liver, Fatty fish like Tuna, Salmon and Mackerel, Egg Yolks (hard boiled), Cheese and yogurt are all good sources. I wasn't suggesting that you change feeds, the fertrell is a feed supplement. If you do want to make a change later, the folks at fertrell can point you to someone close to you, maybe.

I'd also probably give them a little brewers yeast, not a lot.

I just save the picture. Right click it and save it if you're on the computer. If you're on a tablet or phone, just hold your finger on it until the menu comes up and either click save or download, whichever option is there.

My son helped me figure it out. Apparently I have to click on "full image", and only then will my phone give me the copy and save options. I guess I was trying in the wrong place. Thanks Aurora!
