Yea I have 2 reds and 3 Grays and then that barred looking one which has to be crossed with something. Those little red ones though are hard to catch for some reason and one of them screams whenever I do catch it lol.
Grit for chickens?

That's funny lol one of my silkies freaks out when I catch her but the rest are fine. The barred is pretty though I got a barred silkie mix with my others.

Maybe its just pullets the freak out and scream when you catch them... Hmm. Something to think about i guess. It would definitely be easier to sex them that way lol.

That would make it much easier I'm pretty sure I got lucky with only one roo but not positive. That's my little roo he's smaller then the rest of them.

Here ya go, everything you need to know about feeding grit to Poultry. Yes, there is a definite science to feeding grit. The 1st 5 posts are very helpful. The bibliography is exceptional as it has abstracts of every cite included.
