| Watch your chickens dance and peck in a frenzy for these natural whole-dried mealworms!
Contains natural dried mealworms that chickens absolutely love to eat. Dried mealworms offer chickens the taste they love without the inconvenience of storing and handling live worms. | | Nutrena’s NatureWise Oyster Shell is a great addition to your flock’s daily nutrition. While your chickens are on a balanced layer feed, the hens may need some additional calcium to help benefit their eggs.
Laying hens need extra calcium to make sure that their eggs have sturdy and protective shells. Hens put roughly 20 times the amount of calcium into their eggs than into their bones, therefore extra calcium is often needed for flocks. Adding calcium to your flocks diet can reduce the risk of egg shells breaking, reduce the risk of bones breaking, and can help improve cardiovascular function.
This bag of oyster shells is 97% calcium carbonate. It has been heat treated for purity to make sure your flock gets the best. | An all-in-one, all natural complete feed for starting and growing chicks that provides complete, balanced nutrition from hatch to laying age.
