Hello experts! I'm back again with another raw question.
Based on some things I've read regarding kitten nutrition and on the stools my kittens are producing, I've determined that I need to bump up the calcium in my kittens' diet. We are using the Hare Today Ground Chicken/Bones/Organ which is 80/10/10. I would like to increase the calcium, as I've seen that the recommendation for kittens is 17% bone. Also, stools have been a little dark and loose, so increasing the calcium a bit makes sense.
I've ordered Pure Encapsulations Calcium MCHA to add to my mix, but am unsure how much to add to get closer to that 17% number. Each capsule has 250 mg of calcium, and I want to get this right since too much calcium would be as bad as not enough.
Thank you for any help you can provide!
