This all-natural supplement supports healthy gizzard function and optimal digestion by grinding feed efficiently, maximizing nutrient uptake. Perfect for small breeds and free-range birds, it’s a clean, additive-free solution that aligns with eco-conscious poultry care. ## Description Scratch and Peck Feeds offers grit in three sizes - Chick, Grower, and Layer. Grit is necessary for the healthy development of a chicken's gizzard. The gizzard aids in digestion, and allows for maximum nutrient benefit from whole grain feeds. Made up of insoluble crushed rock, grit remains in the bird's gizzard to help with digestion. Grit is intended to build up in the gizzard and grind food as it passes through. Grit is an essential part of your bird's diet and should always be provided, especially if there is no access to small, sharp rocks. Grit comes in various sizes for different birds depending on size and age. If you have bantams or smaller hens, you may want to stick with the Grower Grit rather than transitioning to the larger Layer Grit. Review: Perfect Sized Grit for Growing Chicks! - I needed a small-sized grit that didn't contain any extra ingredients like crushed oyster shells for my 8 week old chicks since they are not laying eggs yet and don't need the extra calcium for egg production. This fit the bill perfectly. It is small enough for them to peck at, but not too fine that it is powder, and not too large that it does no good for their digestion. Speaking of which, if your chicks have runny poops, then you need to put them on this grit. Guarantee to firm up their poop in no time. My local feed stores have been out of stock (back ordered) of this type poultry grit for almost 2 months now. I shopped around online for poultry grit from other manufacturers, and this was by far, the best deal around here on desertcart. I also highly recommend their brand of Scratch and Peck feed selections. I purchase 40lb sacks of them from Azure Standard which is much cheaper than the prices here on desertcart. I just wish Azure Standard would carry this brand of Grower Grit. Review: Good size for a bantam duck - I've just started to give it to my duck, but he certainly dove in with gusto. Bantam ducks can choke on the size of grit meant for large birds (Mine is a Call Duck, less than 1.5 pounds, full grown.) This grit is a good size for him, and feels like a good consistency for doing its job of grinding up his food for him. Time will tell, in terms of whether he continues to digest his food well, but he's been on it for a couple of days and so far so good. Because he's a drake, (male duck), he shouldn't have all the calcium that any egg-laying female should have. This grit is good for drakes, and females who aren't laying any eggs, because it has no added source of calcium (like oyster shell). So my duck can get the grit he needs without having to ingest more calcium than is good for him. I also appreciate that it doesn't have any other additives like some of the other grits have in them -- such as vegetable oil or probiotics. He gets healthy fats and probiotics in his food, anyway, which is also from Scratch and Peck, and which I believe to be an excellent quality food. In the ingredients of some of the other grits on the market, they just list "vegetable oil". No telling what kind, what quality. Plus, oil goes rancid, and grit may be stored for quite a while. I'd rather my duck gets his oils and probiotics from a high-quality food which has not been stored longer than is advisable, (as well as from all the "free ranging" bugs he can eat, and from all that dabbling in the mud, which has *got* to be providing some soil-based probiotics... ) ## Features - Necessary For Digestion - Made up of insoluble crushed quartzite or granite, grit remains in the bird's gizzard to help with digestion. Grit is an essential part of your bird - Age to Give - Grower Grit being the appropriate size from 8 weeks to 20 weeks. Introduce to developing layer pullets and roosters at approximately 8 weeks of age. - Available In Different Sizes - Scratch and Peck Feeds Cluckin' Good Poultry Grit is available in three convenient sizes: Chick, Grower, and Layer. Offer Layer Grit either free choice in a separate dish or tossing on the ground in their coop. - Better Nutrition - Using the appropriately sized grit allows for the maximum nutrient benefit from whole grain chicken feed. Use Grower Grit in conjunction with our Grower Starter Feed to provide your poultry with optimal nutrition. - Promote Healthy Habits - In the wild, the chickens will go out and get the grit themselves, their mother will teach them to pick up little stones and they'll naturally gravitate towards picking up these little stones. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B014S2CG3O | | Additional Features | Sustainably Sourced | | Age Range Description | Grower | | Age range (description) | Grower | | Animal Food Diet Type | Veterinary Diet | | Animal Food Ingredient Claim | Organic | | Brand | Scratch and Peck Feeds | | Brand Name | Scratch and Peck Feeds | | Breed Recommendation | Small Breeds | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 910 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | Small | | Flavor | Chicken | | Flavour | Chicken | | Item Form | Stick | | Item Weight | 3.18 kg | | Item form | Stick | | Manufacturer | SCRATCH AND PECK FEEDS YOU ARE WHAT YOUR ANIMALS EAT | | Manufacturer Part Number | 9374-07 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion | Birthday | | Package Size Name | 7 lb | | Product Benefits | Supports digestion and gizzard health | | Recommended Uses For Product | Digestive Health Support for Growing Birds, Free-Range Bird Care | | Special Ingredients | Crushed Granite | | Special ingredients | Crushed Granite | | Specific Uses For Product | Gizzard Development | | Specific uses for product | Gizzard Development | | Target Species | Bird | | UPC | 609224800351 | | Unit Count | 112 Grams | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Grower - **Brand:** Scratch and Peck Feeds - **Flavour:** Chicken - **Item form:** Stick - **Specific uses for product:** Gizzard Development ## Images ![Scratch and Peck Feeds | Grower Grit for Chickens & Ducks | 7 lb Pouch | Essential Supplement for Healthy Digestion and Gizzard Health, All Natural, Sustainably Sourced - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619zSovcTDL.jpg) ![Scratch and Peck Feeds | Grower Grit for Chickens & Ducks | 7 lb Pouch | Essential Supplement for Healthy Digestion and Gizzard Health, All Natural, Sustainably Sourced - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vEJ922a8L.jpg) ![Scratch and Peck Feeds | Grower Grit for Chickens & Ducks | 7 lb Pouch | Essential Supplement for Healthy Digestion and Gizzard Health, All Natural, Sustainably Sourced - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fAPGDBJXL.jpg) ![Scratch and Peck Feeds | Grower Grit for Chickens & Ducks | 7 lb Pouch | Essential Supplement for Healthy Digestion and Gizzard Health, All Natural, Sustainably Sourced - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61IbTkD7gEL.jpg) ![Scratch and Peck Feeds | Grower Grit for Chickens & Ducks | 7 lb Pouch | Essential Supplement for Healthy Digestion and Gizzard Health, All Natural, Sustainably Sourced - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+pNu82PgL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Sized Grit for Growing Chicks! *by M***. on 26 June 2022* I needed a small-sized grit that didn't contain any extra ingredients like crushed oyster shells for my 8 week old chicks since they are not laying eggs yet and don't need the extra calcium for egg production.
