Do any of you supplement calcium into your eclectus' diet? I'm afraid that Bean might not be getting enough calcium from the fruits and vegetables that he's eating, and I'm looking for different ways to supplement. David (Bean's breeder) said that he shaves some cuttlebone into his mash for calcium. I've also heard of grinding egg shells and adding to food, calcium fortified tofu and orange juice... Do you do any of these?
I found this on Kathie's site and thought it might be something worth looking into:
Hatched™ Crushed Eggshell PER LB. - SUPPLEMENTS/VITAMINS by MY SAFE BIRD STORE
The thing that I wonder is if the shells are cooked, how much of the calcium has leached out of the shell from the cooking process, does anyone know?
