Raising grain-free chickens is a thing. Free range, lots of scraps and some easy tricks like putting blocks on the ground for while, then pick them up to reveal a colony of bugs and worms and let the chickens go to town, free high quality food right there! Also when they are laying, clean the egg shells as you use them then crush them up and feed back to the chickens and that provides them with the calcium they need. Just remember to clean and crush so they don't start to think they can eat their own eggs.
Yep. You can also put the clean dried shells in a high speed blender and turn into a powder to add to the garden to prevent blossom end rot on the tomatoes and peppers.
