Sales Manager Svend Erik Olesen, Hedegaard Agro says:
“The bigger the egg, the thinner the shell. Chickens tend to lay bigger eggs as they get older. The need for more calcium from mussel shells therefore increases exponentially. Chickens are programmed to instinctively know how much calcium they need and take no more or less.”
“Chickens form the egg shell during the afternoon and evening, and this is where crushed mussel shells come in. Because it takes longer to be broken down and absorbed into the blood, the calcium remains longer in the chicken. And the fact that it stays in the body longer means it helps build a good, strong shell to protect the egg – and that’s the whole idea.”
Director, Birger Christensen says:
“On organic farms, chickens are allowed to take as much of the shells they need.”
