Following an article on egg quality. does anyone else see the calcium powder and deposits inside the egg when they break them check it out?
In the article, it says one of the causes is excess calcium in the diet. A few of the egg quality posts in this article state it could be from excess calcium. Not sure how they would be getting it. I am feeding Oystershell and sometimes occasionally I grind up their eggs after I bake them, and feed them back. I am not mixing any of this with their feed. I am keeping it separate. I have always read I am supposed to feed oyster shell. It only seems to be one hen. Not really sure have not seen which one, but based on the amount of time. Between the laying it seems to only be one. I have never gotten two on the same day.
Sorry, didn’t know how to attach the link to the article so I did a screenshot of one part
