Fancy Feeds Mixed Corn Poultry, 5 kg

Fancy Feeds Mixed Corn – 5kg

A clean, appetising blend of 70% English wheat and 30% cut maize, formulated as a complementary treat for all types of poultry, waterfowl and bantams. It is a treat rather than a feed, and the distinction matters — corn is low in protein and birds will happily fill up on it at the expense of the balanced ration that actually keeps them laying.

Fed properly, it earns its place. Scattering it satisfies the instinct to peck and scratch, keeping birds occupied and out of trouble, and the carbohydrate provides slow-release energy that helps maintain body temperature overnight through the colder months. The 5kg bag suits a small flock.
