Used only in our higher spec feeds, hulled oats or “naked oats” have the fibrous hull removed, making their nutrients more available. Oats have high levels of essential amino acids, lysine and methionine. It also has the highest lipid content of all cereals. Hulled oats can reduce pecking and aggression in flocks too.

Sunflower seeds provide healthy fats and antioxidants, whilst improving the quality of hens eggs and boosting their immunity. Rich in vitamin E, sunflower seeds provide energy and can aid in the moulting process and periods of stress. The high linoleic acid content is essential for keeping poultry at a healthy weight, particularly throughout winter, where plumper chickens will handle the cold better.

Wheat is a rich source of carbohydrates, providing the energy chickens need for daily activities, growth, and egg production. Its high energy content helps maintain the bird's metabolism and overall health. Chickens generally find wheat quite palatable, which can ensure consistent feed intake.

Essential for normal body functions, growth and reproduction, a balanced blend of vitamins is provided in Nesty Complete. The palatable formula allows for easy consumption ensuring your hens receive the nutrients they need.

High in carbohydrates and low in fibre, maize (corn) is easy to digest and a valuable source of energy. Maize can increase chickens weight and contains less sugar than sweet corn. Cryptoxanthin is a colour pigment present in corn that may help give egg yolks a brighter yellow colour too. The high calorie, low protein content makes maize an essential and widely used cereal as part of the balanced diet.

Used only in our Superfood diet, barley offers lower energy values than other cereals due to its low starch and high fibre content. Barley is used in Nesty Superfoods to complement chickens’ existing diet and to provide additional fibre.

Linseed is a unique oilseed because of its high alpha-linoleic acid. It is one of the most concentrated sources of unsaturated fatty acids available in poultry feeds. Linseed enriches eggs with omega 3 fatty acids enormously. The increase in polyunsaturated fatty acids is accompanied by a decrease in saturated fatty acids, the result is a healthier fat profile. Nutrients in linseeds are very important in the development and maintenance of a healthy brain, liver and heart.

Fibre rich and highly palatable, lucerne is an enriching option that stimulates positive behaviours in poultry. Lucerne also helps to optimise chickens intestinal flora, particularly when phasing in new feeds. It supports the yellow colouring of the yolk and assists with birds to be healthier, stronger and fuller in feather.

Peas can be a valuable energy and protein source for several classes of poultry. They are low in fat and high in starch. This legume is high in lysine, one of the most vital amino acids required in poultry diets and it’s high protein content complements many cereal based diets.

Soybean Meal offers high levels of protein, an excellent amino acid profile and good bioavailability. It aids in chickens' growth and overall well-being. It’s high specifications allow for it to be paired with a variety of cereals, complementing feeds such as corn which is the primary energy source in many poultry diets. Soybean meal can aid in lustrous feathers and may reduce the risk if some health problems.

An excellent source of essential fatty acids and energy. Oil is rich in a variety of unsaturated fatty acids which are important for the growth and development of laying hens, particularly linoleic acid. Linoleic acid is deposited directly into the egg yolk which thereby increases the weight of the egg. Oil also improves the overall palatability of the feed, animal immunity and feed intake.

Includes Shell grit and Calciprill to assist in calcium requirements. The Shellgrit helps grind down the food in the gizzard, aid in egg shell strength and bone development. The Calciprill is a highly soluble and bioavailable source of calcium to allow for easy absorption and utilisation of calcium fed in your fowls diet.
