  1. The problem MAY be due to lack of calcium. The eggs could be thin-shelled so they were easily broken. Separate the pair and give the hen the calcium she needs for tougher eggs. You can grind oyster shell, cuttlefish bone, etc..For no reason at all, I don't like calcium tablets ;D Sunlight will also help in the absorption of calcium. I use fine siffted sand in the nest bowl. This will aid in cushioning the eggs. Good luck.
  2. Hi "kababayan". I would suggest raising young from them and these youngsters are the ones you should fly. Might take longer but less risky and traumatic 8) The advice given about the aviary is a good idea also. Not much for the purpose of getting them acquainted with the surroundings, but to have their much needed sunlight. Sunlight is needed for better calcium absorption. While waiting for your youngsters, devote your time to preparing the breeders for their breeding chores. This will help in producing healthy young. BTW, where are you located in the Phils? What lines do you keep? Regards and Enjoy
