## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is grit white?**
A: This will be shades of grey as it is crushed granite and/or quartz. Crushed oyster shells will be white in appearance. Crushed oyster shell is good for grit and for providing a calcium supplement.  However, you don't need to give baby chicks calcium until just before they start laying - somewhere around 6 months. I recommend giving both oyster shell and rock grit to layers.

**Q: Does grit normally have calcium in it?**
A: No it does not period. This grit product is made of crushed granite. It is not soluble and it passes whole through the entire digestive system. Oyster shell products is soluble and is a great source of calcium.

**Q: What is the size of this layer grit vs the chick grit (in mm)?**
A: This is a larger grit. Much to big for a silkie my larger hens are not as keen on it. Pretty big pieces

**Q: Does this have probiotics?**
A: No, and if I want to give probiotics, I'd choose the one I thought best, store it well, and give it in food or on/in a healthy treat.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Sized Grit for Growing Chicks!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 26 June 2022*

I needed a small-sized grit that didn't contain any extra ingredients like crushed oyster shells for my 8 week old chicks since they are not laying eggs yet and don't need the extra calcium for egg production. This fit the bill perfectly. It is small enough for them to peck at, but not too fine that it is powder, and not too large that it does no good for their digestion.Speaking of which, if your chicks have runny poops, then you need to put them on this grit. Guarantee to firm up their poop in no time.My local feed stores have been out of stock (back ordered) of this type poultry grit for almost 2 months now. I shopped around online for poultry grit from other manufacturers, and this was by far, the best deal around here on Amazon.I also highly recommend their brand of Scratch and Peck feed selections. I purchase 40lb sacks of them from Azure Standard which is much cheaper than the prices here on Amazon. I just wish Azure Standard would carry this brand of Grower Grit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good size for a bantam duck
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 6 March 2020*

I've just started to give it to my duck, but he certainly dove in with gusto. Bantam ducks can choke on the size of grit meant for large birds (Mine is a Call Duck, less than 1.5 pounds, full grown.) This grit is a good size for him, and feels like a good consistency for doing its job of grinding up his food for him.Time will tell, in terms of whether he continues to digest his food well, but he's been on it for a couple of days and so far so good.Because he's a drake, (male duck), he shouldn't have all the calcium that any egg-laying female should have. This grit is good for drakes, and females who aren't laying any eggs, because it has no added source of calcium (like oyster shell).So my duck can get the grit he needs without having to ingest more calcium than is good for him.I also appreciate that it doesn't have any other additives like some of the other grits have in them -- such as vegetable oil or probiotics. He gets healthy fats and probiotics in his food, anyway, which is also from Scratch and Peck, and which I believe to be an excellent quality food.In the ingredients of some of the other grits on the market, they just list "vegetable oil". No telling what kind, what quality. Plus, oil goes rancid, and grit may be stored for quite a while.I'd rather my duck gets his oils and probiotics from a high-quality food which has not been stored longer than is advisable, (as well as from all the "free ranging" bugs he can eat, and from all that dabbling in the mud, which has *got* to be providing some soil-based probiotics... )

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for growing chicks
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 28 June 2025*

Works great for our chicks! Super happy with it. The chickens were happy with the size and started eating it up right away. Great value!
