Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

The trouble Bob has is that 4grams of calcium is a big volume of powder.

He might find a high-dose calcium citrate, there's one that's 1500 mg, so three of them ground up would be less than 2 teaspoons powder probably...

In normal times, layer feed with access to oyster shell has been sufficient to ward off softshelled eggs and any calcium problems with my tribe. I would suggest that will work for you as well.

This is a unique situation. Sansa is extremely calcium deficient and I need to quickly raise her level.

Why she is suffering so right now I have no idea. I need to correct the situation and then monitor it long term to try and figure out what is happening.

Awwww......you know we love you. You are just always making the Swallow/coconut references, that I couldn't resist.

Which one? The African or European swallows?

I'm still looking for migratory coconuts, myself.
