I rarely have luck with the liquids, but I find the pills are really easy to pop in the crop. (Except for the really small ones, which always get pushed out.)I've never used Gluconate, but I believe it comes in a liquid so it could be administered orally or over treats, probably a lot easier to give then the powder or pills. My layers will lay some softies early in the season when they are still trying to get their "engine up and running". It should be addressed if the eggs continue to be soft shelled.
I hope she is working out the kinks, but I do notice that she doesn't want to do anything except drink, until she lays that egg, so it concerns me. While her sisters are foraging, she just stands there with that forlorn look on her face. Once she lays her egg, she's chatty and active, but until then, she doesn't do much of anything, including eating.
