Directions For Use:

Domestic laying hens should have unlimited access to the feed (ad lib).
Feed intakes are typically 90 to 200 grams / bird / day and will vary with the season, variety of bird, lighting, shed conditions, disease status and other environmental conditions.
Green feed and vegetable scraps can add some variety but it should only be a small part of the diet as egg production can suffer. Avoid feeding any mouldy feed.
Clean, cool, fresh water should be available at all times.
When hens enter the end of lay period, shell quality may deteriorate. Calgrit (coarse limestone) or shellgrit offered ad lib may help improve shell quality.

Feed Riverina Laying Pellets Red Label as the primary diet to laying hens at a rate of approximately 120-150g per bird per day, adjusted based on bird age, production level, and environmental conditions. Provide fresh, clean water at all times alongside the pellets. Introduce any dietary changes gradually over 7-10 days by mixing increasing proportions of the new feed with existing feed to avoid digestive upset. Store in a cool, dry location and use within 8 weeks of opening for optimal nutritional value. Tips: Monitor your flock's body condition and egg production regularly; reduce feed quantity if hens become overweight, as this can reduce laying performance. In hot SE Queensland summers, feed during cooler morning and evening hours to encourage better feed intake. Ensure feeders are cleaned regularly and positioned to minimize waste and contamination.
