Luvachicken Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 ooo er, I've been giving it to my 2 for the last few weeks possibly more because they have taken it in turns to moult and then Matilda wasn't well and they haven't laid any eggs. Have I done the wrong thing ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 You can give it everyday with differing doses according to the condition of the birds. I only use it in times of possible stress on loss of condition or softies. If you are feeding a good quality balanced diet and your birds are in good general health I personally don't think they need too much supplementation if any.

Jools Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I agree with Chucky Mama's approach - only when needed rather than regularly (assuming they're on a proper diet with minimal treats and extras) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I use it three days a week under normal circumstances but step it up to every day in the winter and when they are moulting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
