I have been dealing with weak egg shells for quite some time now. I have done what I can to increase the calcium intake of my birds. I just read an article that said giving them water with any type of softener in it will cause calcium absorption issues. We use lanpum sm50 calcite/corosex mix in our water because our acidic water was corroding our copper pipes. I’m assuming this is considered a softener. The article specifically mentioned “lime, resins, salts or cheating agents” as culprits.
My question is, is there anything I can add to the water to counter act the softener, if, in fact, what I’m using is considered one of the culprits?
