Chickens have no teeth so they need a grit to help break down and digest bait. Even if the hordes find sand in your garden is free range, we recommend supplementing your bait to avoid the digestive system problems common without grit. Grit free choice for poultry in separate containers. Grit is bascailly rock & chicken self-regulates what you eat. 2 grits available: Layer & Glow Grit (8 weeks +), Starter Chick (0-8 weeks) Ingredients Grit is a stone and nothing is added. Especially 100% natural stone Quartzite is a hard, leave-free metamorphic stone originally a pure quartz sandstone. Sandstone is usually converted to quartz by the heat and pressure associated with structural compression in the Orgenic Belt. ||||||||||||||||Chicken should always be gritted.
