This was a good purchase. I saw the brand on TikTok and then bought it. The chickens loved it.

Trusted ingredients and my ducklings have had no issues.

My chicks use it as soon as it was introduced to them. It was in stock where as stores were sold out at the time!

Great starter scratch!

Great supplement for starting chicks, just as described. Good stools noted from chicks

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... )

I recently tried Scratch and Peck Feeds Cluckin' Good Layer Grit for my backyard flock of chickens. This product offers a great solution for supplementing the dietary needs of my laying hens.I appreciate that Scratch and Peck Feeds uses all-natural and organic ingredients in their products. Knowing that my chickens are consuming a high-quality, non-GMO grit gives me peace of mind.I noticed that my chickens eagerly consumed the grit, which suggests that it is both palatable and beneficial to them. I appreciate the different size options available, which cater to various breeds and sizes of poultry. The texture of the grit is just right, allowing my chickens to easily pick and consume it. There are some larger sized pieces of granite in this bag which my chickens do not consume. If you bantom chickens I would check another source for smaller sizes.
