Chickens, and all birds in fact, naturally pick up small stones. These stones function as teeth. By adding stomach grit as extra feed, the bird permanently has small stones in its stomach. The stomach grit helps to grind feed as finely as possible. The surface of the feed is increased, enabling the easy uptake of the nutrients in the intestines.

The stomach grit stones leave the bird’s body of their own accord, as soon as they are worn down.
