jellykelly Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I've only been joined a few days, yet here's another question for you! Two out of my three hens are laying The last couple of eggs from one hen has had really weak shells. If you pick it up, you're at risk of putting a finger through it. Does this mean the chicken is lacking in something - and is there anyway I can rectify it quickly? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutrix Farmers Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Nothing a bit of limestone flour and crushed baked egg shells won't cure. She just needs a bit more soluble calcium in her diet. Henrietta laid a few soft shelled eggs when she first started laying but she's OK now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
