It is cheap! I use so little just thought it would give my sons and I another chicken activity. Ha ha
What about O shell for grit?? Is it sufficient for laying hens?
Well the ingredeints on my farm store bought bag just say OYSTER SHELL. So I thought if its pure crushed shell I can do that. I was curious about the age of a shell? Say I just grabbed one from the seafood shack parking lot. Still an OYSTER SHELL. Wonder if it looses any of its calcium value...
Any reason why I can't take an oyster shell in a sock or screen and give it the sledge hammer?
Heading to the beach next week for vacation and thinking about bringing home a few shells for the girls.
Anybody?

This is all good news.... I've been wanting to try to let my birds out but I'm scared...
So it sounds like its a natural intstict to stay pretty close to home/coop??? Not to run wild and never return.
What makes or doesnt make it organic?
Of coarse no pesticides.
I buy feed from a local farmer that mixes his own "layer" feed. 15.75 per 100lbs
I often wonder whats the difference in the so called "organic" eggs????
"They boy taking care of them - didn't"
Sounds like his fault to me.. Being irresponsible doesnt make him a monster.....Whatever...... sorry about the loss.......
Chew the boys ass first!! Sorry to here that!! His parents should make him buy you some new chickens!!
My boys would be working for you forever!!
Good luck!!
Classic country is on in my run right now. I also think it's a deterent to predadors....Not sure if it helps or not but I believe the hawks can here people or whatever.
