My Three Chicks
Crowing
I have 4 girls around 24-weeks old. 3 are laying. They are on layer feed and have free access to oyster shells. All are laying good hardshelled eggs.
Today I decided to bake some eggshells for them. I put a little in their food then in my hand and they devoured it! Like it was a treat!
Should I be concerned...does this mean they are not getting enough calcium?
I hope that they don't develop such a taste that they eat their own eggs!
