$1.00 per pound UnCrushed Oyster Shells 10 pounds or more
$1.50 per pound Crushed & Sifted To below 1/8” 10 pounds or more
$2.00 per pound Crushed & Sifted To below 1/8” 5 pound bags
INGREDIENTS: Ground oyster shells; Screened to smaller than 1/8”. Ideal size for chickens to completely digest and assimilate all the calcium.
Large pieces of oyster shells cannot be completely digested and assimilated by chickens.
Over 70% of regular larger oyster shells pieces pass through a chicken and are expelled as waste.
Sometimes the sharp oyster shell edges slice open intestines or block expulsion, resulting in hen death.
Large oyster shell pieces wastes over 70% of the calcium.
Oyster shells should be ground and sifted smaller than 1/8” to be digested and assimilated completely by chickens.
FEEDING DIRECTIONS: Offer free choice in a separate container to laying hens, ducks, and mixed flocks for superior eggshell quality and bone health.
Begin feeding at about 12 weeks as a substitute for grit and for calcium deficiency.
RECOMMENDED FOR: Chickens, turkeys, ducks; all birds and waterfowl.
Oyster shells, abundant in carbonates, comprise approximately 96% calcium carbonate
GUARANTEED ANALYSIS: 38% Calcium
Oyster Shells will promote strong egg shells and skeletal strength in poultry when added to their feed by giving them a source of calcium.
These highly digestible shells are sized to increase solubility and availability in the digestive system.
They are less dense than limestone and it stays longer in the gizzard ensuring a greater absorption of calcium.
It will also reduce egg loss, extend the length of the lay cycle, reduce manure moisture and improve fly control.
An ideal supplement that will help you get optimal production from your layers.
Composting with oyster shells:
-
The addition of oyster shells increases the temperature of the compost and improves the degree of humification. \
-
Porous oyster shells can absorb ammonium nitrogen, thereby reducing the emission of ammonia gas. \
-
The microstructure of oyster shells changes during the composting process, which increases the content of calcium.
-
Oyster shells are an excellent additive for waste compost,
