There are different sized grit sold. What I buy here in New England is
called 'Growers Grit' and is larger than the other sizes - good for
bonsai soil use. (It is a supplement fed to chickens and turkeys to aid
in digestion).

Sold here as "Turkey grit" in farm and feed stores (NOT
nurseries) . . . but be careful that it is granite and not
crushed limestone or crush oyster shells, which is what the
turkeys fill their gizzards with down here in the south.
