At about 10:30 this morning (October 24, 2015), in Oklahoma, a crowd of people congregated to watch the State University homecoming parade. Suddenly, a car struck a police motorcycle, then drove straight into the crowd. As a result of this, 3 people were killed and 34 others injured.
For birds that are laying large numbers of eggs, an easy and high calcium supplement is dried egg shell ground to a powder and added to their normal feed. Layer pellets are supplemented with calcium as well. Soft or thin shelled eggs may indicate calcium problems in your birds.
Too much calcium can be the cause of Kidney failure. Calcium levels in chickensâ layers feeds (around 3-4%) is needed for egg-shell production but drakes or ducks that arenât in lay require less (around 1%). Wheat can be fed in the bottom of a half-bucket of water which will help ducks balance their diet. During the winter, my ducks will eat far fewer layers pellets and a lot of wheat. This is reversed during the breeding season between February and August when the ducks are in lay.
