Re: Vermiculite (was: Perlite vs. vermiculite)

Marlynn,

Poultry grit is hard rock, crushed into sharp angular grains in the range
of about 2-4 mm, depending on grade.  It's sold by any feed store that
carries livestock and poultry feed, since mineral grit is required by all
birds with gizzards.

The sharp clean grains and size range of poultry grit are excellent for a
number of horticultural applications.

Note: you DON'T want crushed oyster shell, also available at these stores.
This is a calcium supplement for laying hens.
