Cuttlebone is a natural and effective calcium source for birds, turtles, chinchillas, and other invertebrates, promoting healthy exoskeletons and bones.

For birds, the rough texture of cuttlebone allows them to grind and wear down their beaks, keeping them healthy and preventing overgrowth.

In the past, the heat-resistant and carvable nature of cuttlebone made it a popular mold-making material for casting small metal objects and jewelry.

Ground cuttlebone was used as a polishing agent for various materials, including metal and even in some toothpastes.

Historically, cuttlebone was used in some cultures as an absorbent and an antacid, with research also suggesting potential anti-ulcer and hemostatic (blood-stopping) properties.

As a rich source of calcium carbonate, cuttlebone can be utilized in the production of calcitic lime.
