    Excellent Chickens Require Excellent Nutrients

     Studies show within 67 weeks or less your hens eggshell strength is starting to decline (in one study between weeks 33 and 67 there was a 25% decline in eggshell strength. The older the chicken, the less it absorbs critical nutrition for egg production. Which makes their systems rob nutrients from their own bones for egg production.

    Macro minerals and micro minerals, also known as trace minerals, are both essential minerals that your chickens need in different quantities.
