Chicken & Poultry Food

Layers pellets are a complete feed designed to meet daily nutrient needs for laying hens. Mixed corn (usually maize + wheat) is an energy treat—best offered late afternoon so birds eat pellets first.

As a guide: 100–120 g of layers pellets per average hen daily, plus a small corn portion in the evening. Adjust to body condition, weather and activity.

Use wheat as an occasional whole-grain energy top-up or scatter to encourage natural foraging. Don’t let it displace the complete feed.

Provide oyster shell for calcium (shell quality) and insoluble grit for birds without regular access to small stones (helps grind feed). Offer separately so birds self-regulate.

Yes as an energy treat, but ensure ducks and other poultry still receive a balanced daily ration appropriate to species and life stage.

Pellets morning/daytime, corn late afternoon, fresh water always, and oyster shell/insoluble grit ad lib in separate containers.

Keep bags cool, dry, airtight, off the floor and away from pests; label with date and use first-in, first-out. Discard any feed that smells musty or shows mould.
