Prof J G Valpin told the poultry school at Ohio Experiment Station that hens require oyster shells and limestone grit and animal feed mash at all times. Data from Wisconsin experiments show lack of shells and grit harms egg production, though not soft shells.

Better Progeny by Culling in Poultry Flocks
The United States Department of Agriculture reports that culling to keep vigorous prolific layers improves progeny. Breeders from a 1920 Rhode Island Red flock produced seven extra eggs per bird in year two, with pullets laying earlier and more evenly, and higher winter output. The daughters showed about two dozen more eggs per bird in seven months and $1.04 more value per bird, a margin expected to rise further.
