They each get 1 1/2 cup of grain 2x daily with free choice hay, loose minerals and sodium bicarbonate. Should I be giving them calcium, so I don't run into problems?   Maggie Leman Moderator Username: maggieleman Post Number: 117 Registered: 07-2005 Posted From: 64.102.64.113 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)
