DESCRIPTION

CHF Organic Chick Starter Grower Mash is a broad spectrum ration
specially formulated for chicks, pullets and meat birds. Formulated
using certified organic grains and protein meals; the CHF Organic Chick
Starter Grower Mash is free from all forms of medications that may be
found in other starter feeds.
APPLICATION

LAYING HENS
Unlike other starter feeds, the uniquely diverse nature of this ration
negates the need to change diets from a starter to a grower (pullet
grower) part way through the growing cycle. This therefore avoids
waste and the expense of a separate feed, as it can be fed to day old
chicks through to point of lay hens (Approx. 18-20 weeks) or slaughter
for broilers. (Approx. 10 - 12 weeks)It is important to ensure your
chicks have free access to feed and water and are protected from any
harsh environmental conditions. For very young birds it is necessary
to keep them warm with a specialised heater lamp (or light), especially
during the colder months. For laying pullets it is also advisable to begin
blending the CHF Organic Chick Starter Grower Mash with your
preferred CHF Layer ration at 16 weeks of age. This will provide the
extra calcium and nutrients to assist with egg production.

MEAT BIRDS
The CHF Organic Chick Starter Grower Mash is equally adaptable when
feeding meat birds, once again avoiding the need to swap to a grower
ration during the growth cycle; allowing the same feed to be fed until
slaughter. (Approx. 12 weeks).
