Feed Barastoc Premium Top Layer Mash as the primary layer feed to laying hens at a rate of approximately 120-150g per bird daily, adjusting based on production levels and environmental conditions. Provide fresh, clean water at all times alongside this feed. Mix into existing feed rations gradually over 7-10 days when transitioning from other feeds to avoid digestive upset. Store in a cool, dry location and use within 8 weeks of opening for optimal nutritional content. Tips: For best egg production results in Gympie's warm climate, feed during cooler parts of the day (early morning and late afternoon) to encourage feed intake when temperatures peak. Supplement with oyster shell or limestone grit to support shell quality, especially during high production periods. Monitor bird condition regularly and adjust feed quantities based on body weight and laying performance.
