However, older laying hens can often no longer properly mobilise the calcium reserves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe consequence is broken and weak eggs. Our\u003cstrong\u003e Aniforte FarmLife mussel grit \u003c\/strong\u003emade 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy should you buy mussel grit for chickens?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMussel 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\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003egizzard\u003c\/strong\u003e, which grinds up food before digestion.
