Without access to \u003cstrong\u003epoultry grit\u003c\/strong\u003e of the appropriate size, young chicks can develop digestive problems when consuming foods that require mechanical grinding. Offering \u003cstrong\u003estarter grit\u003c\/strong\u003e free-choice from the first few days of life ensures the digestive system functions properly as chicks grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChick grit\u003c\/strong\u003e is sized specifically for young birds and is finer than the grit appropriate for adult chickens, matching the smaller gizzard of newly hatched and growing chicks. This \u003cstrong\u003epoultry grit\u003c\/strong\u003e should be offered in a separate dish rather than mixed into feed so chicks can consume the amount they need on their own schedule. As chicks grow into pullets and hens, transitioning to adult-size \u003cstrong\u003estarter grit\u003c\/strong\u003e or grower grit keeps their digestive system working efficiently. Cashmans carries \u003cstrong\u003echick grit\u003c\/strong\u003e alongside starter feed, oyster shell, and other poultry products for complete flock support.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cisco Companies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46690306687148,"sku":"1438","price":13.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.cashmans.com\/products\/starter-grit-baby-chicks","provider":"Cashmans","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
