Fourteen Reasons to love Nesty
Each ingredient has been selectively picked to ensure quality, with majority of our ingredients sourced from
Australian Farmers.
Corn
High in carbohydrates and low in fibre, maize (corn) is easy to digest and a valuable source of energy. Maize can increase 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.
Molasses
Molasses is a natural feed ingredient produced during sugar extraction, valued for its sweetness, aroma, and binding properties. It enhances feed palatability and reduces dust while improving texture and uniformity in blended feeds. Rich in natural sugars and trace minerals, molasses also supports consistent energy intake and improves overall feed acceptance.
Rice Bran
Rice bran is a nutrient rich by product of rice milling, containing natural oils, protein, fibre, and essential minerals. It contributes to feed palatability and energy density while supporting a balanced nutritional profile. The inclusion of rice bran also enhances feed texture and uniformity, making it a versatile ingredient in both grain-based and pelleted formulations.
Vegetable Oil
A small percentage of vegetable oil is included to manage dust and improve palatability. Vegetable oil provides a concentrated source of energy and aids in reducing feed dustiness for improved handling and palatability. Depending on seasonal availability, locally sourced canola or sunflower oil is used. Both are rich in essential fatty acids and contribute to feed consistency, supporting smooth blending and stable formulation performance.
Mealworms
Mealworms are a highly nutritious and well accepted addition in chicken diets. Rich in protein, mealworms assist in growth and development, feather growth and repair, and enhancing egg quality. They are a fantastic source of amino acids necessary for chicken health. The nutrients in mealworms can help strengthen the immune system of chickens, making them more resistant to diseases and infections.
Coarse Wheat Bran
Coarse wheat bran is a highly digestible fibre source that supports rumen and gut health across a wide range of livestock. It promotes steady feed intake, improves manure consistency, and helps stabilise digestion, particularly in grain based or high energy diets. It also provides moderate protein and phosphorus, contributing to balanced nutrition without excessive starch.
Fine Wheat Pollard
Wheat pollard is a palatable, energy dense milling by product that supplies digestible fibre and moderate starch for livestock. It supports gut function, encourages consistent feed intake, and helps balance high forage or low energy rations. Pollard also contributes useful protein and phosphorus, making it a practical ingredient for maintaining condition and supporting growth and production.
A premium, nutrient rich mash formulated to aid in peak laying performance. Provides balanced energy, protein, and key nutrients to help boost egg production, and support birds during stress or high demand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can all poultry eat Nesty’s Poultry Porridge?
Yes, Nesty’s Poultry Porridge is safe for all poultry, including chickens, ducks, geese, and more. Even baby poultry, such as chicks, goslings, and ducklings, can enjoy any flavour from the range. Be sure to always add water to ensure easy consumption, as this feed is not suitable to be served dry.
Why should I feed my flock Poultry Porridge?
Feeding your flock a wet mash provides a nutritious, highly palatable meal that even the pickiest eaters will enjoy. It’s also a great way to increase their fluid intake on hot days while boosting productivity. Plus, it offers enrichment, giving your chickens a fun, engaging activity.
What makes Nesty’s Poultry Porridge the better choice?
Made with Australian grains and produced in South Australia, Nesty’s Poultry Porridge range is manufactured in a Feed Safe Accredited Feed Mill and offers nutritious, balanced mashes that your flock will love. With a variety of flavours and carefully selected ingredients tailored to poultry nutritional needs, there’s something for everyone. They are free from antibiotics, all-natural, and perfect at feeding the fussiest of feeders.
Can I feed Poultry Porridge dry or without water?
Whilst the Poultry Porridge (mash) range is designed to be mixed with water and served immediately. Feeding it dry is an option, working similar to a pecking pellet to provide long term stimulation. Always feed with caution and supervise hens if feeding dry, as it may cause chickens to choke or struggle with the large pellet size.
Can I use cold water instead of hot water to prepare the mash?
Yes, you can use warm, hot, or cold water. However, cold water will take longer for the porridge to soak and reach the desired consistency.
Can I feed other treats to my flock along with the Poultry Porridge?
Yes, but keep treats to no more than 10% of your flock’s diet. Always provide clean water and ensure pellets or a grain blend are available for ad-lib feeding.
Is your feed organic?
No, our feed is not certified organic. We focus on maintaining a low carbon footprint and using premium, consistently sourced grains. Organic certification often requires frequent ingredient changes due to supply variation, which can compromise nutritional balance and quality. Our priority is stable, science backed formulations that deliver consistent results. Our grains are traceable right back to the grower, with some even being grown on our very own personal farm.

Moulting chooks
My chooks are moulting and look like worn out dusters. Feeding them this has perked them up and will help them through this rough time. It would be nice to get eggs again too!
