Because they do not have teeth, chickens need to eat grit. When in the gizzard, the grit acts as the chicken's
teeth, and performs the grinding actions neccesary to make their food digestable. S.P.R. Centre Hen Grit is a
very hard, insoluble grit which offers great benefit to all poultry. Feed 28g (1oz) of grit per bird, per month.
SPR Fishmeal is an excellent source of protein and is also rich in essential ammino acids, vitamins and minerals.
Fishmeal is a natural balanced feed that is high in protein, energy, minerals (calcium and phosphorus), a natural
source of vitamins (including choline, biotin and vitamin B12, A and E) and the micronutrients selenium and iodine.
It has long been recognised that the anti-genicity of fish protein is low, and coupled with the anti-inflammatory
properties of fishmeal, its inclusion in chick diets has been shown to greatly improve disease resistance in poultry.
SPR Fishmeal is produced from sustainable sources and is a renewable feed source, produced almost exclusively
from types of fish for which there is no demand for human food use. It is ideally balanced for poultry and also a
concentrated source of energy. Feed Fishmeal as a supplement in addition to other feeds.
