Jon,
Do you color the ballast or is that the natural color of chicken grit?

Dr. John,

That is the natural color of the grit. It appears to be a bit lighter when it comes out of the bag but once you use the "wet water" and diluted glue it must take off some of the dust and goes to a very natural look.

I try and find bargains and I think I hit it rich with the grit.
