This feed is suitable for ducks, geese and all waterfowl.
GRUBS | THE FUTURE OF FEED
As the need for sustainably produced food increases, insects play a vital role in providing protein-rich nutrients that minimize environmental impact. Grubs (Black Soldier Fly Hermetia illucens) are raised on pre-consumer food waste which would otherwise end up in landfills, then turned into powerhouse nutrition for your flock.
Tasty and nutritious, our grubs are 100% natural, have up to 40% protein, and are rich in calcium, vitamins, minerals, and essential amino acids. Formulating feed with grub protein supplies your flock with a nutritional experience you can feel good about.
By purchasing this bag of feed you will save 16.4 lbs of food waste from entering a landfill. That’s the weight of 120 eggs!
FEEDING INSTRUCTIONS
Your hens should be approaching their full grown size at approximately 20 weeks of age. Begin introducing Naturally Free Organic Layer Pellets + Grub Protein gradually to allow for a slow adjustment to the new feed formula.
Refill feeders only after all feed has been consumed (til they “clean up their plates”). Trough feeders provide the best access to our whole grain feeds. Be sure to offer fresh water, plenty of Cluckin’ Good Organic Herbs and you can begin to supplement oyster shell at this age.
INGREDIENTS
