25kg ACS Chick Crumbs for Chickens & Poultry
Chicks will absorb their yolk sacs before hatching and are able to survive solely from the sac's vital nutrients and protective antibodies for the first 24 hours of life. Chick Crumbs should then be introduced after the first day of life to encourage chicks to take food. Our 20kg Chick Crumbs are an ideal size for day old chicks, also aiding good feather formation and a strong frame.
Please note these are ACS chick crumbs, a medicated, high-protein starter feed designed for day-old chicks up to 4–6 weeks old.
This high-quality complete feed also contains supplementary vitamins and minerals to support healthy development and the overall health of chicks.
Our Chick Crumbs are also suitable for feeding growing Chickens, Hens, Ducks and Geese.
Feeding advice:
- Feed up to 6-8 weeks, following on to Poultry Growers Pellets
- Always ensure a clean, fresh supply of drinking water
- Feeders should always be kept clean and filled with fresh feed
- Provide a source of appropriate poultry grit, which aids in the digestion of feed
- Whole grain feeds can be fed either with an appropriate feeder or used as a scratch feed by scattering in the feeding area
- Only leave 1-2 days’ worth of Chick Crumbs in their feeding area at a time.
- One chick will usually eat approximately 1.5kg over the course of five weeks
- Replace any wet or old food immediately.
It is essential to provide insoluble grit as Chicks have not developed any teeth, they require flint grit to properly chew, digest and break down the fibre in their food.
Always keep utensils, feeders, drinkers and houses clean and fresh.
Please note, we recommend storing in a cool dry place. Best consumed within 3 months of the date of manufacture.
