Hi there, if you feed them shell grit (purchased from the local feed supplier) in addition to their feed it helps. It's related to a slight calcium deficiency. We had the same problem with some of our chooks and the problem was solved overnight. Place the grit in a seperate container so you can see how they progress through it.
