Cuttlebone is a good source of calcium carbonate for you birds. It can be hung in the cage year round so that you birds can eat it whenever they feel the need for additional calcium in their diet. You will notice that the hens will eat for more cuttlebone during breeding season to replace the calcium her body uses to coat her eggs.

Welp, not the intended use but sure works great for me!
I use this for my pet snails as they need lots of calcium to keep their shells strong and not breaking and its doing the job great!

1/2 teaspoon on bird food dry not wet.
Instructions of how to use on item description on amazon 1/2 teaspoon only on dry food and seeds 1x a day. It is Absolutely perfect exactly as I was searching for my macaws for them daily calcium potassium ect intake always recommended cuttle bones in the cage and the powder for the bowls of food. Also beak and nail trimming perch for them to sand and file themselves as they see fit make sure they got toys to stimulate there minds and keep them entertained they are social creatures not meant to be left alone all the time.

Works well
I got this product surprisingly for my millipedes. It works well and their shells look good and they have molted well. I guess this is t the typical product application, but I will buy it again when my supply gets low.

The product is good, but overpriced
My birds like it better then the whole cuttle bone. However it's very pricey for such a small amount. It's better to buy the larger ones and crush them down.

Used for Quail, they love it
The ladies' eggshells have been much stronger and the roos have more energy. It's got some larger pieces, but if my little quail can eat them chances are any other similarly sized bird will be able to as well.

Not powder
Well it has powder but it more like chunks.No spoon bag does not resell easy. If I wanted to crush something I would have stuck with egg shells. Maybe an ounce of this would be usable for me. Shame. Had high hopes for this. Ill use it for my shrimp an snails otherwise its junk.
