Re: [CHICKENS-101] Re: Thin shell

 

Marla,
I have never given mine oyster shell. They
free range around the yard,but i do give
them crumble on the side. It has everything
they need for eggs.

I've never fed mine grit or oyster shell. I've never tested my ground to see how much calcium is in the soil but it must be significant. My girls have hard shells. I'm just thankful that they get theirs naturally.
I was raised assuming that only cage birds needed grit and oyster shell. I guess it all depends on soil type then.
