Thank you Ms BYBuddies,
Sounds as if you do take a personal and detailed interest in everything {lucky husband, children and all} I will check the details of my feed supply. About CA+--- As a nurse, I have learned that CA+ is very difficult to absorb from the GI tract and the very best for our bodies would be to keep a constant intake form foods that contain CA+ rather that the supplements that are sold. Only 1/4 of these are absorbed and only under the correct conditions....... So I try to feed my hens foods with highter CA+ instead of the products that are sold. Because I have seen litttle evidence that the birds that I have raised eat the CA+ in the oyster shell form, even though I have added it to thier feed. Just my unscientific observation except about human dietary intake and GI absorption. sigh
