Selection of Chicken Feed

Mash Feed

It’s the loose version of the chicken feed made by simply crushing and mixing. It's nutritionally complete feed that is in ground form. It’s the finest variety of chicken feed commonly available and its texture is similar to that of potting soil. It’s used for young chicks since it’s easy to digest. This type is fit for chicks during the first 1-6 weeks. This kind of feed normally has the highest amount of protein which helps the newly hatched chicks to grow healthy and quickly.

Crumble Chicken Feed

Crumble feed is generally produced by crushing, mixing, pelletizing and broking. Compared to mash feed it’s easier to manage. Its texture mainly resembles that of oatmeal. This type of feed supports the growth of chicken after the first six weeks until the hens start laying eggs. When a chicken starts laying eggs there is also change in nutritional needs. Most people use the crumble to bridge the gap between mashes and pellets feed while others claim that their chicken loves the crumbly texture of the feeds.

Chicken Feed Pellets

Feed pellets are made through the process of crushing, mixing and pelletizing. This type of feed is the most common type available. They are specially designed for productive hens. This feed has the right proportion of mineral, energy, and protein for the chicken since laying eggs depletes their energy. It takes around 24-25 hours for a chicken to create one egg, so your chicken should have their pellets all day long. Egg laying chicken requires calcium which is used in making of eggs. Oyster shells are often used since they are a source of calcium. If a chicken’s digestive system is empty she can’t manage to make any eggs, so ensure your chicken goes to rest with full crops at night. The good thing about the pellet type of feed is that it’s less wasted due to its shape. It’s easier to store, manage and serve.
