@Wyorp Rock I may be overthinking here but I got some of this Calcium Citrate and these tablets seem enormous. Can she choke on these? Should I break in half? Crush? Etc?

If you have the Petites, give her 2 pills which will equal 400mg.

Yes, you can just pop a tablet right into the beak, they can swallow it just fine. If you wish, the tablet can be broken in 1/2. The main thing is getting the Calcium into her.

I'd give her 300mg Calcium Citrate+D3 for 7 days, just pull down on her wattles and pop the tablet right into the beak, let go of the wattles and let her swallow.

Thank you! Once I gave it to her and realized how far her beak opens, that made a difference. I did give her two since they’re only 200mg each, probably should have got the bigger ones but I was nervous about tablet size. She did spit it back out a few times but I managed to get her to take them. Ill get better at it lol. Thank you again!!!!

Practice makes perfect!
Once you get the hang of it, it's not too bad, and she'll get used to it too.
