Scarlett laid her 7th clutch last night. She has laid one a month since August. Each has had 7 to 9 eggs. Are there any health concerns I should be considering, and anything I should do about it?
Fertility is not great, but I didn't breed her. Will this year. She had surgery October 2014 to remove broken eggs and repair her uterus. She was a rescue. She broke into my young males enclosure twice last spring for short periods.Wow, that's a load!
I think the only thing you can do is ensure that she has a lot of calcium and lipids (fats) in her diet to offset the egg production.
It would also be interesting to see what the fertility of each clutch would be.

She is getting a lot of calcium. What would be good food choices for fats? I feed her mazuri a couple times of week.
