roundworm, caecal worm, hairworm and gizzard worm in chickens, turkeys, and geese. Activity includes adult

weeks with a further 7-day course is recommended.

A special treat for your hens! A complementary feed for all domestic poultry, made from high quality cleaned wheat and cleaned cut maize. Feed mixed corn only as a very special treat for birds to peck at in the afternoon, rather than in place of a nutritionally balanced pellet. For optimum egg production and nutrition, feed no more than 28g (1oz) each, spread over a fresh bit of run, or on the floor in the house during the winter months. Don't blend mixed corn in with the daily feed, or the birds won't lay very well.
Feed Allen & Page Baby Chick Crumbs to chicks from as soon after hatching as possible until the chicks
are six to eight weeks old. They can also be fed on a free access basis. In the week before changing to Allen
& Page Poultry Grower Pellets, it is preferable to mix the crumbs and the pellets to ensure a gradual change
over. Unlike other companies chick crumbs, these do not contain an anti-coccidiostat, so they may be fed to
ducks or geese. *All Small Holder Poultry Feeds are Coccidiostat Free.
Life-Guard is a natural, veterinary approved supplement for chickens. It's patented formula helps maintain a healthy immune system, support gut flora and allow birds to cope with environmental change, as well as body weight, egg quality and number, feather and skin condition. Body Weight: The Phospholipids (fat derivatives) help balance body weight and feed intake ratio. Egg Quality and Quantity: One of the main factors influencing laying performance, particularly in relation to egg number and size, is the presence of Amino Acids in the diet. Biotin, protein quality and Vitamins A, D, E, and K are essential for egg white (albumen) and yolk quality. NAF Life-Guard contains all of these important nutrients in the ratios and quantities required by a fit, healthy bird. Feather & Skin Condition: Amino Acids are vital for the formation of quality protein within the body. Hence their presence in the diet is necessary for healthy plumage, skin, bone, ligaments and tendons. Vitamins A and E are both important for healthy skin and feathers. Improving the diet with NAF Life-Guard as recommended will ensure the birds receive the correct levels of these essential nutrients. Antioxidants: Antioxidants support the body’s natural defences against the effects of free radicals. Antioxidants mop up any excess free radicals, harmlessly excreting them from the system, leaving the bird in optimum health. Vitamins: Vitamins A & E both play integral roles in optimum fertility & reproductive health. Vitamin E is also central to the healthy functioning of the immune system and peak skin condition. The B vitamin complexes work synergistically in many areas, including skin, the nervous system, feather health.
