Mixed Grit

Whats the best way of providing the mixed grit? So far everything I've tried has just ended up over the run floor which they seem to then ignore. It seems a little coarse to put in the mash and they still wont touch pellets.

On a side note my 3 have raided the herb garden and eaten all the parsley (a better fate than the oregano suffered.... really need to bin that now). I assume this "self seasoning" wont hurt them?

Make yourself a fairly high sided wooden box to put them in. To encourage them, I sometimes throw the odd hanful of grain in with the grit.
