What To Feed Your Chickens
The Basics Of Feeding Chickens
Many new chicken owners don't realize how complex the question of what to feed their flock can be. Beyond traditional commercial feed, there are numerous options to consider. You'll need to decide between layer and broiler feeds; mash, crumble, and pellets; varying protein contents; and different types of treats—and that's just for adult birds. Chicks, pullets, and older birds each have unique dietary needs that require specific feeds.
At Countryside Feed, we take the guesswork out of what to feed your chickens from baby chicks to maturity. We offer Poultry Perfect Chick Start & Grow Crumbles, designed to be fed to chicks, growing birds, for meat production, or to layers.
Our Poultry Perfect 20% Lay Pellets utilizes advanced poultry nutritional science technology, resulting in the inclusion of digestive enzymes, probiotics, and prebiotics to naturally keep hens healthier. This enables the hens to maximize their egg-laying production. The probiotics provide advanced gut protection from foreign pathogens and help maintain the proper gut pH. Enzymes are added to help increase the digestive breakdown of the protein, starches, and phosphorus contained in the feed for improved digestion of nutrients.
The Poultry Perfect 16% Lay Pellets are designed to be the best egg production feed available anywhere. The higher protein and other nutrients level in this feed help promote maximum egg production. Made with wholesome, natural grain and premium all-vegetable protein sources. No animal proteins or by-products are used or needed in this quality product.

No other supplementation is needed.
