Flint or insoluble grit. Chickens donât have teeth, apparently, they are very rare, so to grind down their food, they use a strong muscular organ called a gizzard. Chickens pick up grit whilst foraging, which is kept for a while in the gizzard to perform this grinding process.
I leave the feed out all day. I ensure they have their layers mash/meal/pellets mixed with grit in the mornings and if I have any treats for them, I tend to give these in an afternoon as I know then that they've had the required nutrients from their staple feed.Chickens should always have access to feed, water, grit and room to forage and roam. have 6 hens. I feed them in the morning, grains, veggies or fruit, crushed oyster shell and grit. In the mid-afternoon I feed them scratch (corn) to keep them warm through the night. And of course, always fresh water with a garlic clove in it to keep them free of parasites.
