So I have been having a hard time finding cuttlebone locally. I usually am using egg shells. But when I thought I was being clever and ordered my babies a bulk order of cheap cuttlebone online, it showed up as tiny chunks of utter trash that I could never feed my redfoots. Can anyone recommend a good site to order quality cuttlebone from?

I buy my cuttlebone locally in the bird section of hardware or pet stores so I can pick nice and big pieces.

You are right. I used to get the large 8-12" cuttlebone by Sleek and Sassy. Can't get it anywhere. I did get some in bulk that arrived in good condition; will check label where I got it and/or I'm willing to share some of mine.

Mine shipped from BirdDog Depot, 172 Trade Street, Lexington KY 40511 probably an Amazon company. Arrived in perfect condition though I'm in GA so did not have far to go.
