Stomach grit or grit

Stomach gravel in chickens cannot be compared to grit. This is generally a shell product that therefore contains a lot of lime. For more information about grit click here on . Grit is for lime addition (eggshell production), but stomach gravel is essential for the digestion of food.

Although they look the same from a distance, stomach grit and grit are completely different. However, they are both necessary for the good health of our chickens.

The difference:

• Stomach grit : These are small stones that the chicken picks up while scratching, stomach grit is used in the gizzard as a kind of millstone. By contracting the stomach muscle, the chicken can grind the food that is in the stomach with the stomach grit. Stomach grit is preferably sharp so that it can grind the food well in the gizzard. This promotes digestion, so that the chicken food can be better absorbed. Chickens that can walk around freely will look for stones to grind the food themselves. However, to be on the safe side, it is advisable to always give a little stomach grit. This can also be observed in the chicken run. Few stones will be found in the run, because these have already been scratched up and eaten by the chicken.
• Grit : is finely crushed shell of crustaceans. Grit is ideal for chickens and other birds that lay eggs because they can extract the calcium they need to make the eggshell from it. In addition to calcium, chicken grit also contains minerals that ensure a good bone system. order chicken grit

Waarom Kippengrit Essentieel is Voor Jouw Kippen

Een goede spijsvertering is cruciaal voor de gezondheid van kippen. Omdat kippen geen tanden hebben, gebruiken ze kippengrit – ook wel maagkiezel genoemd – om hun voedsel in de spiermaag fijn te malen. Daarom is het belangrijk om altijd grit voor kippen beschikbaar te stellen.

Wat Doet Kippengrit in de Spijsvertering?

Het kippengrit blijft in de spiermaag van de kip zitten, waar het helpt om zaden, granen en ander voer mechanisch te verkleinen. Dit proces verbetert de opname van voedingsstoffen en voorkomt spijsverteringsproblemen. Gezonde vertering leidt tot sterke, energieke kippen met een goede eierproductie.
