This high-protein layers mash is designed for poultry keepers who want to ensure their hens lay regularly and maintain good health. Its key benefit is the 17% protein content, complemented by yolk color enhancers like lutein and zeaxanthin, leading to optimal nutrition and vibrant egg yolks. A potential consideration is that it's a mash, which some birds may prefer less than pellets, and it requires consistent availability to mimic natural grazing behavior.

The Copdock Mill Range Layers Mash contains 17% protein, which is essential for supporting regular egg production in laying hens.
This feed is specifically formulated for laying hens and adult birds. It is not recommended for chicks or pullets, who require different nutritional balances.
The general guideline is to feed around 120g of chicken food per day to each laying hen. Ensure a constant supply is available throughout the day.
It is recommended to start feeding this mash approximately three weeks prior to your hens' expected point of lay to prepare them for consistent production.
The mash contains natural ingredients like lutein, zeaxanthin, and citranaxanthin, which are known to enhance and deepen the color of egg yolks.
Yes, this feed is suitable for all types of poultry, including ducks, geese, and bantams, as it provides a complete and nutritious diet.
Store the feed in a cool, dry place, ideally in a pest-proof container, to maintain freshness and prevent spoilage.
Ensure hens are receiving approximately 120g of feed per day and have constant access to fresh food and water. Check for any signs of stress or illness in the flock.
While the feed contains enhancers, overall diet and genetics play a role. Ensure constant feeding and consider if other dietary factors might be influencing yolk color.
Ensure the feed is fresh and stored correctly. Some birds may need time to adjust to a mash texture; gradually introduce it or mix with a small amount of a preferred feed.
Store feed in a cool, dry, pest-proof container. Only put out what your birds will consume within a reasonable timeframe to prevent spoilage, especially in damp conditions.
Setup: This product is a feed and requires no setup. Simply place it in a suitable chicken feeder.
Compatibility: Suitable for all types of domestic poultry, including laying hens, ducks, geese, and bantams.
Care: Store the feed in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and pests. Ensure the feed is always fresh and replenished. Chickens should have constant access to the mash throughout the day. Provide fresh, clean drinking water at all times. It is recommended to feed approximately 120g of mash per laying hen per day, starting about three weeks before they are expected to start laying.
