Update on Ms. B

She's an on-again-off-again layer.  Not every day.  Couple days in a row, then a day off, then a couple days.  Eh....  I'm ok with that.  Considering she didn't lay for MONTHS, I'm good with on-again and off-again.

She laid one leathery egg a few days ago, so I upped her calcium and protein.  And one day I think she stepped on her egg, because it was broken in half.

I'll feed her milk, yogurt, and meat some days when I think she needs to improve on her egg shell.  I hard boiled some eggs last night and one cracked and got nasty -- so I fed that to her this morning.  Folks at work get queasy when I tell them I feed my chickens leftover chicken and eggs.  What can I say?  It's perfectly ok to do that.
