Hi All,
I`ve read several times here about oyster shell being fed for "stronger" eggs and have heard of people going to buy it. I am fortunate enough to live 10 minutes from the ocean, the beach is FILLED with oyster shells,clams,muscles,little snails and other shells that i`m not quite sure what they are. anything wrong with collecting some and taking a hammer to them and feeding them to my birds? I would imagine I would have to clean them first or at least give them a GOOD rinseing with fresh water. Are any of the other shells besides the oyster worth collecting as well? thanks Tony
