Argo Mixed Poultry Corn

Treat your flock to the ultimate wholesome reward while encouraging natural foraging instincts with Argo Mixed Poultry Corn. Expertly blended by traditional nutritionists, this premium, high-quality scratch grain mix consists of the finest clean whole wheat and kibbled (cut) maize. It is suitable for chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, and bantam breeds.

Mixed corn serves as a highly appetising supplementary treat rather than a complete feed. Scattering a handful around the run provides essential variety, relieves boredom, and encourages active scratching behaviours that keep birds mentally stimulated. Rich in natural carbohydrates and oils from the cut maize, this blend provides an excellent source of slow-release energy. When fed in the late afternoon, it helps keep your birds warm and satisfied through cold winter nights, ensuring they wake up bright and active the next morning.

📋 Flock Feeding & Run Management Guide

Recommended Feeding Allocation:

• Treat this mix as a supplementary scratch treat. Feed approximately one small handful (around 20g to 30g) per bird, per day.
• Always feed in the late afternoon after your flock has consumed their primary complete feed ration (Argo Golden Yolk Layers Pellets). This ensures they do not skip their vital daily vitamins and minerals.

Critical Run Management Guidelines:

1. Scatter to Encourage Foraging: Instead of putting mixed corn in a standard feeder, scatter it directly onto clean ground, loose straw, or grass. This forces the birds to actively scratch and hunt for their food, fulfilling their natural behavioural drives.
2. Insoluble Grit Requirement: Because whole and cut grains require active mechanical grinding inside the bird's gizzard, always ensure your flock has free access to sharp poultry flint grit.
3. Waterfowl Management: Ducks and geese love Argo Mixed Corn! When feeding it to waterfowl, you can scatter it into shallow water troughs or clean concrete pads to allow them to sift and eat comfortably.
4. ⭐ Top Tip: Never overfeed mixed corn in the morning! Because it tastes incredibly sweet and satisfying to chickens, they will gorge on it and ignore their layers pellets, which can lead to a drop in egg production and unwanted weight gain over time.
