Grit should be available in a separate container for the chickens to eat as they need it. Most have a container of crushed oyster shell as well for calcium as needed.

I can I crush egg shells as a substitute for crushed oyster shell?

I bought some grit guys, giving it to them every now and than to make sure they digest better, what is a good schedule for feeding them grit should it always be available?

Provide grit and oyster shell free choice, the birds will take what they need.

You can also offer crushed egg shells, but it's always a good idea to provide oyster shell as well.

Let me say this, my hen is now making a sort of soft whining noise while she goes to bed, also I think all my hens still sneeze, she also makes a sort of wheezing noise when I pick her up but when I hear her breath it still doesn't seem nearly as bad since I had her on a medication for her breathing problems earlier, and the other hens as well.
