Alfalfa Forage Feast Pouch 700g

Sorry, product out of stock

Alfalfa Forage Feast is an appetizing blend of alfalfa, flaked maize, flaked peas and grits.

Some of the many benefits of feeding alfalfa to poultry include:
Increased pigmentation - Hens will produce eggs with more orangey yolks
Rich in minerals - Alfalfa is an excellent source of calcium and selenium, phosphorous as well as Vitamins D and A.
High in fibre - A good addition to the diets of hens who don’t have access to grass and other roughage.
Reduces feather pecking - Gives a diversion and keeps them active.
Promotes healthy intestinal flora and a good resistance

For best results take a large handful of Alfalfa and add a cup of water, leave this to soak for 5 minutes. Then scatter on the floor of the pen to help satisfy the birds' instinct to scratch and peck. Can be fed dry.
