Key Features:

  • High-Quality Ingredients: Each pellet contains a concentrate of premium ingredients specifically designed to meet the nutritional demands of growing chicks.
  • Anticoccidial Inclusion: Contains an anticoccidial agent to aid in the prevention of coccidiosis, an intestinal infection caused by the Eimeria parasite, which young birds are susceptible to.
  • Small Crumble Size: Presented as a small crumble suitable for small beaks, facilitating easy consumption.

Feeding Guide:

  • Ensure chicks have continuous access to feed; do not restrict consumption. Expected intake is approximately 50g per bird per day.
  • Utilize self-feeders designed for poultry to ensure feed is continuously available.
  • Provide access to clean, fresh water at all times.
  • Encourage hatchlings to start feeding by scattering feed on newspaper placed around feeders.
  • Follow any additional feeding instructions provided by your livestock supplier.

It is intended only for broilers, replacement pullets, and turkeys. Do not feed to hens producing fertile eggs or to game birds other than turkeys. Do not feed to horses or other equids.
