The Automatic waterer that I use to supply water to my chickens. If
you wouldn't drink the water then your chickens should not have to
drink it.

Supplying water to chickens in an open bowl invites contamination
with faeces and dirt.

Medium shell grit.

Ground eggshells. I make this by first squashing my saved eggshells
then running them through a vitamiser. However I rarely feed it to
my chickens, preferring to spread it around young seedlings as a
deterrence to snails and slugs.

Ercildoune sand. It is in fact a fine gravel which comes from a
quarry in the Ballarat area. As well as to provide grit for my
chickens I use it to make potting mix and on the vegetable beds.
