## Overview

Scratch and Peck Grower Grit is a sustainably sourced, crushed quartzite supplement designed specifically for chickens and ducks aged 8 to 20 weeks. This essential grit supports gizzard function to enhance digestion and nutrient absorption, promoting healthy growth and digestive health. Available in a perfectly sized 7 lbs bag, it’s the go-to choice for professional poultry keepers aiming for optimal flock performance.

## Description

Scratch and Peck Feeds offers grit in three sizes - Chick, Grower, and Layer. Grit is necessary for the healthy development of a chicken's gizzard. The gizzard aids in digestion, and allows for maximum nutrient benefit from whole grain feeds. Made up of insoluble crushed rock, grit remains in the bird's gizzard to help with digestion. Grit is intended to build up in the gizzard and grind food as it passes through. Grit is an essential part of your bird's diet and should always be provided, especially if there is no access to small, sharp rocks. Grit comes in various sizes for different birds depending on size and age. If you have bantams or smaller hens, you may want to stick with the Grower Grit rather than transitioning to the larger Layer Grit.

Review: Perfect size grit for my new little babies. They are drawn to it and definitely know when to eat it. I’ve had other grits that don’t work as well or the chicks don’t care for them. This is a great brand.
Review: I needed a small-sized grit that didn't contain any extra ingredients like crushed oyster shells for my 8 week old chicks since they are not laying eggs yet and don't need the extra calcium for egg production. This fit the bill perfectly. It is small enough for them to peck at, but not too fine that it is powder, and not too large that it does no good for their digestion. Speaking of which, if your chicks have runny poops, then you need to put them on this grit. Guarantee to firm up their poop in no time. My local feed stores have been out of stock (back ordered) of this type poultry grit for almost 2 months now. I shopped around online for poultry grit from other manufacturers, and this was by far, the best deal around here on desertcart. I also highly recommend their brand of Scratch and Peck feed selections. I purchase 40lb sacks of them from Azure Standard which is much cheaper than the prices here on desertcart. I just wish Azure Standard would carry this brand of Grower Grit.
