I also find that they are way too big

the grit had all spilt out of the tub into the box resulting in some spilling when I opened the package

Value For Money20%

Quite a bit of waste of money for me, as it's more filled with stones and rocks and less oyster shells, my hens just pecks the shells and I'm just left with a whole lots of rubbish to throw away

Too big for hens to swallow
