Chicken Grit for Layer & Grower Chickens Aged 8-20+ Weeks
GUARANTEED SAFE CHECKOUT
The Mile Four Organic Feed brand is available. Visit the Store to shop for Backyard Chickens Extras. Product Description: Choose between Layer & Grower (8+ week) Chicken Grit or Starter Chick (0-8 week) Grit.
Chickens eat grit when needed, making it easy to provide in a separate container from their regular feed. Grit for Layer & Grower Chickens (8+ weeks) is larger than chick grit and the perfect size for flocks after 8 weeks. Grit for Starter Chicks (0-8 weeks) is smaller and more suitable for baby chicks.
When comparing Layer & Grower (8+ week) Chicken Grit and Starter Chick (0-8 week) Grit, the key differences are:
Starter Grit: - For baby chickens under 8 weeks - 4 lbs. and 50 lbs. sizes available - 4.8 out of 5 stars from 117 reviews - $69.99 price
Layer & Grower Grit:
- For chickens 8+ weeks and waterfowl
- 4 lbs. and 50 lbs. sizes available
- 4.7 out of 5 stars from 178 reviews
- $69.99 price
Both grit types are all-natural, 100% USA mined, certified non-GMO, 100% USA grown, and non-medicated. Grit is a required supplement for chickens, as they do not have teeth and need it to break down their feed and absorb the necessary nutrients. On average, a laying chicken will consume about 1 lb. of grit per month, though the exact amount varies by breed and weather conditions.
In summary, the key differences are the size of the grit particles, the recommended chicken ages, and the customer review ratings, while the pricing and other attributes are the same across the two options. Chickens should be provided with the appropriate grit size for their age and development stage.
