@@jeffreywhitmoyer860 We used small stones in our bird feed mix with oil, crushed grain, and meat meal. The new addition of the oil clogged our silos up a fair bit too lol... when we looking in through the top there was a hole from top to bottom, eventually we need shakers on the silo to make it move. I can see oyster shells being a good addition to the feed, its just the addition rate that would need to be worked out.

That was 50-60 years ago, I don't remember what the quantity was that was added per ton but I know it was a fairly small amount. Never caused any clogging problems in the mixer and it came to us ground and bagged in 100 lb sacks. I'm thinking it may have been 5-7 lbs per ton.

Too much calcium will cause problems for the birds, kidney problems or rickets. We feed our birds free choice calcium. However at our other farm, if they are strictly production egg layers you will need to add to feed and it requires lots of math and science to get it correct. (We learned the hard way) On average we try to give our production egg layers 4.8-5g per day with a total feed intake of 120g It's been a challenge as we are small time farmers and don't rely on commercial products. It's been a very interesting learning process over the years. We are slowly getting more right than wrong.

The larger pieces from the jaw crusher, use as walkway material ( gravel path with the crushed shells instead ), the feed size the customer wanted obviously, the fine powdered stuff if fired can be used for lime on lawns / soil remediation, in concrete, in fish food, as lime for marking playing fields. The tumbling as the larger pieces are shifted and spread out takes off the sharp edges fairly quickly, as they wear down into powder they leach into the soil and reduce the acidity. You can walk on the shell paths in bare feet with no problems easier than with actual gravel.

The crushed shell have many uses. They can be used in big coal fueled thermal plants to scrape residual co2 from the exhaust gases when added to the fuel in a swirl fluid combustion chamber. They can be calcinated to make dehydrated lime. They can be used as an aggregate for building mortar. If you clean it and crush it to fine powder with no silica it can be used in cosmetics and as a fine abrasive. Also as feed to birds to help them crush food in the gizzard and as a calcium suplement . As a soil ammendment. To restore beachfronts. If might be used to make fake oyster stone if mixed with the appropiate resin, as bricks or slabs.

If you had a vfd on your hammer mill you could potentially reduce the percentage of fines generated. Small jaw crushers can produce a nice gradation provided you keep them choke fed. You can also refeed it a second time again focusing on a choke fed state. As said elsewhere the fines you produced from the dry shells was quite nice. It would definitely be of interest to feed manufacturers.

Last year I saw 0 stink bugs, and this year I saw 2 between the screen and the window (still outside). I reapplied, and haven't seen any more (yet?). I can't suggest that this is the best product for the job, but it was the only one that I found that worked, mostly... (Per packaging: Don't breath it. Don't rub it into your eyes. and it says it works best as insect killer where it doesn't get wet. (sharp shell powder create micro-abrasions on the underside of certain insects, which apparently leads to their death.) )

I enjoy seeing the various products you run through your equipment. Most of what I can think of for oyster shells has either been said or is obvious / easy to find on the internet. Here are a couple of suggestions that possibly were not mentioned. . 1. Vermicompost (worm farming). Worm farmers often add some sort of pH buffer to the feed stock. For my small hobby worm bin I used ground up eggshells and sometimes dolomite lime. But I have seen worm sites selling oyster shell flour for this purpose. . 2. Snail barrier. Stuff like around the perimeter of your garden or maybe a flower bed. Snails do not like crawling over sharp / rough stuff. Some folks say crushed oyster shells is one of the products that works for this. Have not personally tried. . 3. Bocca Ball Courts This one is probably a niche market in the USA (LOL) but crushed oyster shell is one of the components sometimes used to make a smooth firm surface for a bocca ball court. If it is still there, you can see one across the street from the (now closed I think) Youngstock veggie stand on James street. (across the side street). A friend and I saw the guy making the court a number of years ago and stopped and asked him what he was doing.

Usually when oyster shells are added to a moss or soil etc it’s for PH. The oyster shell makes the PH of the substrate neutral at the 6.8 to 7.0 range. The shell is a solid form being added to your substrate making it stay neutral for a longer time where other amendments in a liquid form need to be added on a consistent basis to stabilize PH. It’s great for tomato cannabis like plants that thrive in a neutral PH range.
