Mile Four Chicken Grit | Natural Aid

Support your flock’s digestive health with Mile Four Chicken Grit from Hatching Time. Since chickens don’t have teeth, they rely on grit to help break down feed in their gizzards. This natural process enables birds to absorb essential nutrients, keeping them healthy and productive. Without grit, chickens may struggle with digestion, leading to nutritional deficiencies and inconsistent egg production.

Why Use Mile Four Chicken Grit?

Grit acts as a natural "chewing" aid, allowing chickens to break down feed effectively so their bodies can absorb vital nutrients. This results in larger eggs, better overall health, and consistent productivity.

Even if your chickens free-range and find some natural grit, it’s crucial to supplement with high-quality grit to ensure they have enough to maintain healthy digestion. Chickens instinctively consume grit as needed, so keeping it available at all times is essential.
