AniForte® FarmLife shellfish for chickens & poultry

A sufficiently high calcium intake is essential for the egg formation of your chickens and poultry. However, older laying hens can often no longer properly mobilise the calcium reserves.

The consequence is broken and weak eggs. Our Aniforte FarmLife mussel grit made from shredded mussel shells is the ideal feed supplement for the calcium supply of your chickens. If you buy mussel grit for chickens, you can ensure the quality of the eggshell over a continuous period of time. In addition, this has a preventive effect on the development of deficiency symptoms of your chickens.

Why should you buy mussel grit for chickens?

When it comes to the diet of your chickens, you should make sure that they are supplied with enough calcium. Shellfish is particularly suitable as a calcium-rich feed supplement. Unlike lime grits or feed lime, mussel grit offers a long-term solution for the calcium absorption of your chickens. The harder and coarser particles in the mussel grit can only be slowly decomposed by the stomach acid of your chickens, so that the calcium is gradually completely broken down and absorbed into the bloodstream. 

Mussel grit is important for a chicken’s stomach because chickens don’t have teeth to chew their food. Instead, they have a specialised organ called the gizzard, which grinds up food before digestion. Mussel grit, helps with this grinding process.

Here’s why mussel grit is beneficial:

1. Aids Digestion – The grit sits in the gizzard and helps break down hard grains and fiber.
2. Provides Calcium – Mussel grit is rich in calcium, which strengthens eggshells and supports bone health.
3. Prevents Digestive Problems – Without grit, food might not be properly broken down, leading to blockages or poor nutrient absorption.

Buy shell grit for chickens now and ensure a higher and more constant calcium level of your chickens.
