Canunda Shell grit is pure shell only, deriving from a freshwater marine conical snail.
The deposits of shell grit are organic, and due to the period in time during which the tiny conical shells were deposited, today the shell no longer holds snail remnants. The snail itself is naturally occurring. Over many thousands of years (after a strong southerly wind) millions of small conical snails would float on top of the water and deposited eventually forming a bank of shell grit.
Canunda Shell is harvested, washed and kiln dried at high temperature.
All species of birds benefit from Canunda shell due to its high 95% soluble calcium component and very low salt levels.
