lizbeth Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I have had my 2 girls for about 9 months now and have only ever had 1 softie - after one of them had laid a gigantic double yolker! Over the past couple of weeks one of them has laid about 4 softies - we have had the occasional 'proper' egg as well. They have access to grit at all times and she generally seems to be well and is still eating as far as I can tell. I was just wondering if there is anything else that could be causing this - should I worm them just to make sure or could this not be causing the problem? Thanks in advance x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarahsausage Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I'm having the same problems with one of mine, she's been laying softies for a while now despite having access to grit and additional limestone flour in her food, I think she's just getting old as she's an ex-batt, don't think there's anything you can do about it really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I would worm her if it hasn't been done for a while. I'd add a bit of cod liver oil to her pellets. The vit D3 will assist with calcium absorption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I've found that someone kept laying softies when on a food that mum got them for Christmas. When I changed back to my favorite brand I'm now getting a full house most days again. P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
