How much??

Recommended Posts

We've been getting quite a few soft egg lately and thin shelled eggs so I've bought some limestone flour which has just arrived from ebay.

 

I have 2 x 5kg feeders. How much would I add to the food and do I stop adding it once the shells are good and strong again?

 

Many thanks for your advice.

Regards

Nicola

I add a desertspoonful to a full grub, which I guess holds a kg or so of food. I also coat the pellets with a little cod liver oil, to help the limestone flour stick, and the vit D3 contained within it helps with the metabolism of calcium.

 

To your second question - yes, I would stop adding it once the shells improve in quality.
