Frequently asked questions

What is oyster shell grit used for?
It provides a soluble source of calcium to support eggshell formation in laying poultry.

Is it the same as flint grit?
No. Oyster shell is soluble and supplies calcium. Insoluble flint grit helps grind food in the gizzard. They serve different purposes, so oyster shell should not be treated as a replacement for insoluble grit.

How should I offer it?
Use a separate grit dish or hopper and follow the pack’s feeding instructions. Continue to provide your hens’ normal balanced feed and fresh water.

Is this a complete feed?
No. It is a calcium supplement to accompany a balanced poultry diet.
