Premium bocce layer; boots eggshell strength in poultry and neutralizes acidic soil
Oyster shell is naturally rich in calcium—the key mineral hens need for strong eggshells. This heat-treated, screened grit gives laying hens a clean, natural way to self-regulate calcium: the larger, soluble particles sit in the gizzard and release calcium slowly, especially overnight when shells form. The result is consistently stronger eggshells and fewer day-to-day quality swings.
Additionally, for garden soils, the larger particles weather slowly—typically releasing calcium over 3 to 12 months while gently buffering acidity and feeding perennials, shrubs, and trees over time. Choose Grit when poultry supplementation is the priority and when soils benefit from a slow-release calcium profile rather than a quick pH bump.
Made for bocce court surfacing and top-ups, this fine grind compacts smoothly for a fast, even, well-draining playing surface that’s easy to level and refresh through the season. It also brightens the court for better sightlines while staying comfortable underfoot.
Additionally, for garden soils, the finer particles begin improving calcium availability in roughly 2 to 6 weeks, helping counter low pH and support vigorous growth—especially in new beds and edibles. Choose Flour when bocce performance comes first and when soils need a quicker-release calcium and gentle pH lift.
