Not impressed with shell strength.

Just FYI, I learned that too much of a green with oxalic acid, like spinach or beet greens, can interfere with calcium absorption. Same with people. I had to sprinkle calcium powder on my goose's greens to help his broken wing mend.

That's good to know. No greens right now. Every thing is still mud and snow, and they are still confined to the run and coop. Can't set the electric netting up until the ground thaws, and they haven't had any greens as treats in a long time. More snow tonight... sigh...

Excess calcium can cause kidney issues for roosters and other non laying chickens. This why I don't want to go back to layer feed for everyone.

Thank you!
