Organic Backyard Layer Pellets are a blend of certified organic grains which are finely milled and then pressed into a pellet, offering a consistent nutritionally balanced diet ideal for backyard laying chickens.

Typical ingredients may include certified organic cereals such as wheat, sorghum, barley, pearl millet and corn.

The feed also contains certified organic vegetable protein meals such as soybean meal, safflower meal, sunflower meal, fishmeal and meat meal, as well as other essential vitamins and minerals.

Formulated to the same high specifications as the CHF Organic Backyard Layer Mash, this pellet ration provides the birds with all the essential vitamins and minerals necessary to maintain good health and to promote consistent, strong shelled, vibrant yolked eggs.

Features:

Product of Australia

Certified organic

Nutritionally balanced for egg production

20kg packaging

Feed from point of lay (18-20 weeks)

Feed CHF Organic Backyard Lay Pellet to laying hens at a rate of approximately 120-150g per bird per day, adjusted based on bird size and production levels. Provide fresh, clean water at all times alongside the pellets. Distribute pellets in feed troughs or suitable feeding containers, removing any uneaten feed daily to prevent spoilage. Introduce the pellets gradually over 7-10 days when switching from another feed to allow hens to adjust. Tips: Store pellets in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain nutritional quality and prevent mold growth. Feed in the early morning and late afternoon to encourage consistent laying patterns and reduce feed wastage. Monitor your flock's condition regularly and adjust feed quantities based on seasonal changes, bird age, and production rates.
