Did you know that it is very important to add grit to our hens' diet? Even if the nocks live free it is good to leave them a feeder with a little grit inside, which is nothing more than a mixture of small gravel, oyster shells and shells and is very useful for the well-being of the hens 😊🐔 When our cocche eat, being devoid of teeth, the grains reach their stomach still whole. With the addition of grit, the various grains are crumbled inside the stomach itself, so the animals can digest the feed more easily and their body can absorb all the necessary nutrients 😉 Grit is also an excellent source of calcium which helps our females to have a healthy and strong skeleton and to produce eggs with a strong and solid shell 🐔🥚
