Chicken Feed Types

PELLETS
 Chicken feed pellets are simply compact cylinders of chicken feed. Pellets are
convenient because they hold their shape well, so they are easy to pick up if your
chickens happen to knock over their feeder. Pellets are also easy to serve and store.
 Pellets are perhaps the most common variety of chicken feed available. Just like it
sounds pellets are essentially little compact cylinders of chicken feed goodness. One of
the benefits of using pellets is that they hold their shape nicle, which means they won’t
go to waste if your ladies accidentally knock their feeder over. Easy to manage, store
and serve, pellets often become the first choice for most backyard chicken keepers.

MASH
 Mash is a loose, unprocessed form of chicken feed that is commonly fed to baby chicks
since it is very easy to digest. However, mash varieties of chicken feed are suitable for
chickens of any age. Mash can also be combined with hot water to create feed with a
porridge-like texture that many chickens love.
 To put it simply mash is a loose and unprocessed version of chicken feed. Similar to the
texture of potting soil, mash is the finest variety of chicken feed commonly available.
Mash is normally used for baby chickens, as it is easy to digest, however it is not
uncommon for fully mature chooks to be fed mash. Some Chicken Ladies or Lads
combine mash with hot water to create a porridge like texture that your flock will love to
chow down on. Be mindful however of the fact that this method can cause the feed to
expire more quickly. The main issue with mash varieties of chicken feed is that its
texture often results in an increase of incidental waste, so bare that in mind.
SHELL GRIT
 Chickens require shell grit to keep their digestive systems functioning properly. Chickens
store the grit in their gizzards to help them grind down their food to better access the
nutrients. Shell grit also boosts calcium levels, crucial to bone health and egg shell
strength.
 Shell grit essentially serves two key purposes. Firstly, shell grit is a rich source of
calcium that helps your ladies form delicious eggs with strong and sturdy shells. Chooks
that don’t get enough shell grit in their diet can end up laying a wide variety of egg
oddities that could turn even the most dedicated of chicken lovers off their eggcellent
bounty. Secondly, chickens store shell grit in their gizzard, which assists them in
pulverising their feed to help them digest their dindins with ease. All mature chickens
need shell grit in their diet and it should be served in a separate dish from their regular
laying feed. Chickens are able to regulate their calcium intake so don’t fret about serving
sizes too much - most girls will be able to tell when they’ve had enough.

CHICKEN SCRATCH
 Chicken scratch is a mixture of cracked corn and other grains that serves as a
treat or supplement to your chickens’ regular diet. Chicken scratch is a great
source of energy and can help chickens stay warm on chilly nights. Be sure to
feed chicken scratch in moderation since too much can result in unwanted weight
gain in laying birds.
 Chicken scratch is not the same as chicken feed. Try and imagine chicken
scratch as a kind of treat for your flock. Most chicken scratch varieties consist
mostly of cracked corn and other grains that chooks love to eat but are
unfortunately not very good their waistlines. Chicken scratch is a great source of
energy for your flock and can also help warm their bellies on chilly winter nights.
However, always remember that chicken scratch is not the cornerstone of a
healthy diet - it is a delicious treat that every chook should enjoy every now and
then.
CRUMBLE
 In simple terms crumble is a coarse variety of mash but not as compact of pellets.
Reminiscent of the texture of oatmeal, crumble is a semi-loose variety of chicken feed
that is slightly easier to manage than mash. Some chicken lovers use crumble to bridge
the gap between mash and pellets for their flock. Others claim that their girls just simply
prefer the crumbly texture. Whatever your reasons for using crumble instead of mash or
pellets at the end of the day it shouldn’t make any significant difference to your flock’s
health.
 Crumble varieties of chicken feed are coarser than mash varieties, but not as compact
as pellets. Crumble is often used as a transition from mash to pellets within the flock. But
crumble can be fed to chickens at any stage of life. It’s really a matter of what texture
your flock prefers.

MEDICATED VS. UNMEDICATED


 Starter and grower chicken feeds often come in medicated or un-medicated varieties.
Medicated feed contains amprolium which is designed to prevent coccidiosis and other
diseases in young chicks. If your chickens have been vaccinated for coccidiosis, don’t
use medicated feed, as the effects of amprolium are not compatible with the ingredients
in the vaccination.

FERMENTED

 Any type of chicken feed can be mixed with water and allowed to ferment naturally. The
process of fermentation releases many of the grain’s nutrients, making them more
available for your birds. Fermented feed can also cut your chicken feed costs, since the
added density of the feed helps chickens feel fuller longer.
DIFFERENT KINDS OF FEEDS

1. BOOSTER CHICKEN FEEDS


 DAY 0-10 DAYS OF AGE
 Based on the excellent amino acid balance and high quality raw materials
 Highly effective coccidiostat is added in the feed
 Encourages high and continuous feed intake
 Subsequent growth, high feed conversion, promotes faster development

2. GROWER CHICKEN FEEEDS


 DAY 21- Day 25
 The dietary requirements for a chicken between 6 to 20 weeks old is very different from
a baby chick. Essentially grower feed contains a protein content that is between 16-18%
but has less calcium than regular layer feed. In an egg shell, grower feed supports the
continuing growth of your teenage chookies without bombarding them with unnecessary
vitamins and minerals that are more suited for fully grown laying hens. Once your girls
start laying eggs that’s a good sign that they are ready for layer feed.
3. STARTER CHICKEN FEEDS
 Day 11-20 Days
 Starter feed is a protein dense variety of chicken feed designed to meet the dietary
requirements of baby chicks. Generally speaking baby chicks can live comfortably on
a diet of starter feed and water for the first 6 weeks of their life before progressing
onto grower feed. The high protein content, usually between 20-24%, helps young
chicks grow into playful pullets, however it’s imperative that you phase out the starter
feed once they are 6 weeks old, otherwise the excess protein can cause liver
damage.
4. LAYER CHICKEN FEEDS
 Layer feed is designed to meet the needs of mature laying hens and contains a balance
of protein, calcium, and other important vitamins and minerals that promote health and
enhanced egg quality and production. Layer feed typically contains 16-18% protein,
along with a generous amount of calcium to ensure strong egg shells. Layer feed should
only be fed to chickens around 20 weeks of age or after they have begun laying eggs.
 You can also supplement your chickens with added calcium by providing ground oyster
shell or crushed egg shells.
 Layer hens also need grit to aid in digestion, especially if they aren’t able to free range.
5. FINISHER CHICKEN FEEDS
 Day 25 - Day 35

 Based on the high energy and high quality raw materials


 Free of coccidiostat
 Focus on better feed conversion rate higher ADG
 High lean meat yield, less fat, residue free
 Faster weight gain leading to early slaughter (35 days in comparison to (38-42) days
hence increased profits.
 High bird weight thus profitable; Premium meat quality
