## Description

desertcart.com : Scratch and Peck Feeds | Layer Grit for Chickens & Ducks | 7 lb Pouch | Essential Supplement for Healthy Digestion and Gizzard Health, All Natural, Sustainably Sourced : Pet Supplies

## Features

- Necessary For Digestion - Made up of insoluble crushed quartzite or granite, grit remains in the bird’s gizzard to help with digestion. Grit is an essential part of your bird’s diet and should always be provided.
- Age to Give - Start after 20+ weeks. Layer Grit is for all laying hens. Broilers should switch directly from the Chick Grit to the Layer Grit at 4 weeks of age.
- Available In Different Sizes - Scratch and Peck Feeds Cluckin’ Good Poultry Grit is available in three convenient sizes: Chick, Grower, and Layer. Offer Layer Grit either free choice in a separate dish or tossing on the ground in their coop.
- Better Nutrition - Using the appropriately sized grit allows for the maximum nutrient benefit from whole grain chicken feed. Feed to developing pullets and full-grown hens and roosters at approximately 20 weeks of age.
- Promote Healthy Habits - In the wild, the chickens will go out and get the grit themselves, their mother will teach them to pick up little stones and they’ll naturally gravitate towards picking up these little stones.
