This year was my 1st breeding and my female was on the smaller side. She gave me 7 eggs (which surprised me) but they all had varying degrees of "pock marks."

As stated in the previous thread, a cursory search of the web leads me to believe this has to do with some sort of calcium deficiency. The eggs are on day 36 today and despite some problems with humidity, still candle with good veins.
My female is eating like a champ (she's always been an excellent eater) and is putting weight back on good. She'll be considerably larger for next season.
Since she gave me "calcium deficient" eggs, do you think I should supplement her diet with a calcium supplement? Or do you think that since she'll be larger this go round (not planning on pairing her till Nov), the situation will rectify itself? And if you do think I should give her the supplement, do you have any suggestions as to where I can get one? I assume I can't just give her one of the calcium with d3 pills that I take everyday.
Thanks guys! I can't wait to share pipping and hatching pictures with you in a few weeks!!
