Shell less duck egg with broken yolk next to it

Not really wanting to do injections...pills it is. What’s the dosage for the pills?

The injectable can be given orally, but pills will work too. How much do you think she weighs? 8 pounds? If she's about that you can give 500 mg.

@onaharley I would suggest adding some calcium gluconate or calcium citrate to her water for a few days it sure won't hurt. I keep both on hand having so many egg layers.

So sorry, I missed your tag earlier!

I agree with Kathy, that yellow is not normal, a shell less egg on a rare occasion is one thing, but that just doesn't look right...

Also, you said she is sitting around a lot more? I would definitely monitor her, get the calcium citrate or gluconate, and also keep an eye on her activity and her poops... take lots of pics, bum shots won't offend us, lol!
