Conspicuously Absent Posted November 24, 2001 Share Posted November 24, 2001 I have been reading a lot about grit/crushed oyster shells for seed eating birds. Some books say that it is fine for budgies but larger birds do not need it. I know a lot of you guys have seed eating birds and I wanted to know what you do with your birds?

Hagabard Posted November 25, 2001 Share Posted November 25, 2001 I`ve fed grit to all my birds for over 20 years, guess what? Not 1 single death or ilness due to grit!! Works for me, but not for everyone. Ray. www.BirdsUK.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
