Giving fodder to hens amidst H5N1

Amazing, right? But the grit from the store is way too small, so the birds are eating a lot of it, rather than the larger pieces that they can get off the ground.

I get bags of tube sand from any home improvement store. It's cheap and has lots lots of pea sized and bigger stones in it. I just dump half a bag in the run once in awhile. Chickens love it. Personally I think the grit you get for poultry is to course. Tube sand pebbles are the same as ones you would find when processing free range birds.
