Krill Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Make sure they have pleanty of calcium (oyster shell crushed egg shell etc), it's usually only one chicken that does it so try and find which one and remove hergood luckChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceni Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 LAST EDITED ON 25-May-04 AT 07:03 AM (BST)My father's patent "cure" was to mix mustard powder with raw egg, put in a half shell and leave in the nest. It seemed to work but not sure how the chicken would then taste. No doubt we have moved on in 40 or 50 years though.
