Egg shell diet?

[Phionex Boy]

When i do the egg shell diet thing, do i wash the egg shells first? Or is it okay to feed right to them? Also, WHAT IS GRIT?

What is an egg shell diet? If you are asking about feeding crushed egg shells to your hens then no, you don't have to wash them off. I set mine in the window sill till they dry then crush them and mix in their feed. Grit is small rocks that chickens pick up and swallow to help them grind up the food. Some people use oyster shell crushed.
