soft eggs

[Kmcschoolee]

i have 3 leghrns and several other hens. 2 of my leghorns are laying consistently soft or thin shelled eggs. They are eating layer feed, and they free range quite a bit right now. They have access to oyster shell all the time. It has been quite hot here so I am not sure if that coul be a problem. Any ideas on how to help with their eggs.

Give them calcium citrate +D3 once a day for one week.

How much? I have my calcium supplements with 600mg cal. And 800 IU of d3

I don't think that would hurt, not sure though, I'll tag the experts. Mine is 400mg calcium and 500 IU of D3.

This should be fine to give for a short period of time like a week.
