What a gorgeous big boy! Did you get his blood tests done? I think it would be okay for him to try one. That way be can see if he's sensitive to all birds or just chicken.

We are going on monday at 10 a.m, she didn`t have free term in friday. I will see where I can get quail eggs and buy him so he can try. I am calling all private butchers to see can I get lamb inwards, most of them are throwing that I am using eggshells instead of bones

Try if you can to get actual bone meal powder (human grade) as eggshells aren't a sufficient long term substitution. It's okay for now, but over time can cause deficiencies

I bought bone powder but it was 100% beef and he throw up from that and I don`t give him that any more, and I don`t know where to get human grade

Do you have any human supplement or vitamin stores? We have something called GNC in the US

Vitamin D?
I went to take blood test...he was not very cooperativa, so the vet took only lipase test, and his lipase is 526 u/L (0-200 U/L)

They sell a whole bunch of different vitamins and supplements. It should be called bonemeal. Eggshell will work fine for now though.
Unfortunately the lipase reading by itself doesnt give us a whole lot to go on. I'd recommend getting a full panel blood test as well as repeating the lipase with amylase and checking kidney and liver functions.

How long exactly has he been on lamb? Is he still lethargic?

He is on lamb since 13.03., he is not lethargic so much anymore, but it happends now or then... Sometimes I just feel like I`m running in circles and there is no exit...

okay well since he's been on lamb for more than two weeks with no issues I'd like to get him on another protein. We'll have to add it in VERY slowly though. Are you able to get goat or rabbit? Maybe duck?

I can get rabbit Since he is picky, what do you suggest, should I grind bones, or for now that I put only eggshells in meat.

You can grind some of the rabbits meaty bones, but since I want you to add it in very slowly and very small amounts you'll sill probably have to add some eggshell powder

Ok, should I mix lamb and rabbit, or will I just give him rabbit ?
P.S.I will just need to wait few days to get rabbit beacuse the men from which I`m taking them told me that they are small, so I hope that won`t be a problem?
