Chicken feed matters
You regularly feed your chickens leftover food from last night’s dinner. After all, if it’s good enough for you, it’s good enough for them. Isn’t it?
Good news:
It’s a common and very understandable thing to do.
So what’s the problem?
The problem is when table scraps are the only food your chickens are getting fed - and you then expect them to lay.
You see, to give life to another chick inside their bodies, they need extra nutrition:
- To avoid deficiencies - for example calcium deficiency causes poor bone growth and rickets
- For energy - without it, they lose weight, can’t produce quality eggs, can’t grow well
- For Vitamin A - deficiency can lead to skin problems and feathering
Different needs at every stage of a chicken’s life
A chicken goes through 3 stages:
- Starter
- Grower
- Layer
Their nutritional needs vary between stages. For example, it’s very easy for a chicken to at the starter stage to develop caecal and intestinal coccidiosis.
Starter feeds usually include an anti-coccidial to prevent coccidiosis - and are formulated as a complete and nutritionally balanced formulation that will give your chick all it needs to grow and stay healthy.

Pig Feed
How much of your time and costs are wasted when your pigs suffer bone fractures, lameness, anaemia, or salt poisoning?
Destroying your pigs or slaughtering your pigs before their correct weights are not ideal - but may be the only options for sick pigs who have serious conditions or diseases from poor nutrition and feeding.
A balanced diet combined with the right environment is vital to support pigs through the growing or breeding phases. A mix of high energy ingredients mixed with the right amounts of minerals, vitamins, and amino acids can give you pigs at a healthy weight for slaughter at the right time.
