The Homemade rehydration recipe is complete with what's needed, no additives need or should be added as long as you can get her to take it.
She will also need nourishment! Hydrate her for a couple feedings, get her back on formula 1-2 powder to water and give hydration in between feedings.
Do not add calcium into her hydration also. The beige and crumbly bowels are suggesting you are feeding too much calcium.
Have you been going by the per week, per day calcium milligrams spread out through the day as recommended by the mbd protocol?
If you have been winging it, too much. If you have been going by the protocol, cut back.
