I don't think some of this stuff COULD be invented. Used to be I only got on BYC when I had a problem, and I had exhausted all my efforts and ideas, or I was afraid the chickens were ill or something. I'd tried hijacking other threads to ask questions, often didn't get answers, post a question and subscribe, still often didn't get answers.
Can't count the times I've been told that oyster shell calcium would cure soft shell eggs, it hasn't, but it's out there. The hens finishing molting will probably cure my egg situation. I had gotten to a point when I just take a good healthy guess and I joined another forum that wasn't just chickens. I did learn to search for answers (an aha moment) But I also learned that not all questions have good answers.
Experience is gained from making choices and experiencing the results, And wisdom comes from all kinds of experience, good and not so good.
