Why does a hen need phosphorus as well as calcium?

3 views Published 2 hours ago Duration 02:03 Source: TunisieVet

Phosphorus does not work against calcium—they work together. What matters is not the amount of each mineral on its own, but their ratio, ideally around 2 to 1 in favor of calcium. Giving calcium alone, without phosphorus or vitamin D, is not enough to build a strong shell or a healthy skeleton.
