I use oyster shells too as I don't use layer feed, always have mixed ages so keep all on one feed. This too I just toss a handful on the ground and let them take what they want. For a 6 to 8 layer flock a handful of shell once a week or so is plenty.

Late fall I gather some coarse sand and pebbles from the drive way into a small pail. Over winter I toss a handful into the run every three weeks to month as the ground here gets frozen solid from December to mid March.
