EGG SHELLS.

Despite the frigid weather, our chickens have been doing really well lately. We switched to a new type of food and have been diligent about feeding them egg shells, and we've been getting nearly a dozen eggs a day!We keep the egg shells from all of the eggs we eat, and then sort of "bake" them under the wood stove. Once they have completely dried, we crush them up and feed them back to the chickens for calcium. Think about how much calcium they must need to produce an entire egg nearly every day! We have also use oyster shells, but the eggs are free.What do you add to your chickens diet?- Hannah.egg shells. feeding egg shells. chickens.
