The nitty gritty

just wanted to quickly post some #'s. Had to buy chicken grit on Sunday at $2.70. Last had to buy it on Martin Luther King day, Jan. 19th. That means one box lasted pretty much exactly 5 weeks. Breakdown - $0.54 per week. Pretty sure I can get it cheaper somewhere else, or just use beach sand since there's plenty of that around here. Or maybe they don't even need it since they are out free ranging a good part of the day... We mostly have clay here, though - not too much gritty stuff. I need to look into that.
