You said..."I don't over dust the feeders as I've read that that can cause just as many problems as not dusting"...true..but its important to dust enough too.

You said..."I just don't understand why it was so sudden. They dont have any deformities, or even the beginning signs. It was literally over a couple hours that they started acting like this"...calcium imbalances can come to light suddenly. It is strange that they have no deformities, etc.

Can you post a picture please?

You said..."the feces seemed to be abnormally large, is it possible that they could both be impacted and that's causing the problem?"...lack of calcium can slow the intestines down and it can constipate them too. (Calcium plays a part in muscle contractions.)
