    I’ve heard some chicken farms will take grain mixed with rocks, chickens will pick right through the rocks.

      Fun facts, not really fun so much as disgusting and reckless, but they scrape the floor of those chicken concentration camps and scoop up all of the spilt feed and straw and chickenshit and they feed it To like cows and such, and that is to a large degree how bird flu got spread to the dairy cows.

      Chickens actually need gravel and grit for their gizzards to grind up their food, so it’s not an issue. It’s not really and issue for cattle as well as they’ll just pass it, it’s more of a problem with the mill.
