blackgold Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 Daisy passed a very soft folded up eggshell then about an hour later a whole yolk She then trashed her box and had a feed . I put her back in the eglu for the night with her pals. She seems back to normal today and has a carrier bag crop. tonight......I hope it was a one off. Love Sue.

mostin Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Glad to hear she's passed that. Working on a softie makes them look so ill . I hope she bounces back to her usual self tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackgold Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 have you any idea as to why this happened? Anything I can do to prevent reoccurence? Love Sue xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mostin Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 It could just be a one off, or they could be a bit short of vit D or calcium. you could try putting some zolcal D in their water. It has both in and it sorted my girls out after they layed a few softies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackgold Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 Thanks Mostin, I googled ailments and wooried myself sick. i was convinced it was egg peritinitous....... She freeranges everyday and we are getting alittle sunshine now. I put citricidal in their water.... She appears fine today and even had a little go at Jimina over the treats....
