Oyster Shell is an all-natural calcium supplement used to increase eggshell strength for laying poultry.
Calcium is included in all layer feeds; however, different breeds may require varying amounts. By offering free choice, birds will take what they need when they need it.
In addition, if a calcium deficiency occurs, birds will pull from their skeletal system leading to poor health – let’s not let that happen!
Supplementing calcium is an easy way to ensure strong eggshells and to keep your flock happy and healthy.
We suggest offering Cluckin’ Good Oyster Shell in any of the following ways; free choice in a separate dish or tossing on the ground in their coop area to encourage natural scratching behavior.
Crushed Oyster Shell provides additional calcium to increase egg shell strength for layers. Oyster Shell is not a substitute for Grit. Calcium provided by the Oyster Shell is absorbed by chickens to build strong egg shells whereas Grit stays in the gizzard to contribute to digesting whole grains and Oyster Shell. Our balanced Layer Feed formulas contain the ideal amount of calcium for most birds, however, factors such as weather and environment are uncontrollable and may affect how well your birds process and store nutrients like calcium. Supplementing with Oyster Shell is the best way to add extra calcium to their diets to remedy issues such as soft shells or lowered egg production.
