Need to add calcium?

[Scooby308]

I've heard of grinding eggs shells to feed chickens to add calcium for shell development. I saw this today as calcium for human supplement. I thought it was a pretty nifty idea. You could use this process to add calcium to you livestock diet.

Yeah, I’ve crushed eggshells for the hens before and they eat them right up. Cheap way to get a bit more calcium back into them.

I wouldn’t overthink it—just dry them out, crush them good, and mix in with the feed. Works fine.
