And boiled egg in the eggfood too an the perle morbide should have some calcium in too I'm sure. So the Birds have plenty mate. Strange first for me. Lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lol I've had a hen lay 2 good eggs and then be egg bound with the next two eggs and when I've held her over some warm water so she could pass them they where like that, I have been told it can be down to holding to much weight but she laid the first 2 with no problems atb jack 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
