Now that is something I've never thought about when I've had a hen with egg shell issues. Adding D3 to their feed sounds like a smart (and safer) idea.PS- I am on my 3rd generation of hens. One of my new ones has some type of problem so that she layed very thin shelled eggs, even though I saw her eating the calcium on the side. I mix the oil from a D3 capsule into their fermented feed (another topic), so that all of them are getting some extra D3 and I'm getting some in return from their eggs. The problem hen started laying good shells 2 days after I added the D3. I never had to force more calcium into her.
