I have a year old Mallard that has been laying soft-ish eggs for the past several months, we've gone to the vet several times and they thought it was a calcium deficiency and wanting to go broody. So, I let her sit on infertile eggs for 28 days and gave her an extra 2,000 mg of 97% pure calcium carbonate daily the whole 28 days and after. She is sitting in her nest straining another soft egg (I can feel it through her abdomen). I'm stressed and worried about her as she is an imprinted house duck. At this point the only solution seems to be to stop her from laying all together, the vet mentioned a hormone injection, but it was only temporary. Any help would be much appreciated!
