Fancy Feeds Breeder & Show Pellets

Support peak fertility, pristine show plumage, and rapid recovery in rescue stock with Fancy Feeds Breeder & Show Pellets. Formulated by expert nutritionists as a high-specification complete ration, this non-GM, medication-free feed is specifically engineered for adult chickens, bantams, ducks, geese, and game birds kept for breeding, showing, or transitioning ex-battery hens into their new homes.

Breeding stock, exhibition birds, and recovering hens have significantly higher nutritional demands than standard laying flocks. Fancy Feeds addresses this by delivering an elevated 17.5% protein baseline packed with essential amino acids like methionine to promote rapid feather re-growth, vital egg development, and hatchability. Cooked wheat supplies digestible carbohydrate energy to build top-line show condition, while a targeted blend of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids promotes a stunning, glossy bloom across adult plumage. Fortified with Bio-Mos® prebiotics and Sel-Plex® organic selenium, this micro-pellet formula safeguards hindgut health, boosts immune response, and supports sperm and egg viability for strong, healthy chicks.

📊 Nutritional Profile & Specifications

📋 Breeder & Flock Management Guide

Recommended Feeding Allocation:

• Provide ad-libitum access (keep feeders cleanly topped up 24/7).
• Standard Large Breeds / Ducks: Consume approximately 100g to 150g per bird, per day.
• Bantams: Consume approximately 50g to 85g per bird, per day.

Critical Management Guidelines:

1. Do Not Dilute During Breeding: To ensure birds receive the exact vitamin and mineral balance required for fertile egg production, feed these pellets pure and avoid heavy morning corn feeding.
2. Ex-Battery Hen Rescue Protocol: These pellets work exceptionally well as a 4 to 6-week "rebuild ration" for newly adopted battery hens, supplying the dense protein and bioavailable calcium required to rapidly rebuild bare skin, feathers, and depleted bone strength.
3. Insoluble Grit Access: Always ensure breeding pens have free access to hard poultry flint grit to aid mechanical digestion in the gizzard.
4. ⭐ Top Tip: When preparing birds for the show ring, switch them onto Breeder & Show Pellets at least 4 to 6 weeks prior to the event! The combination of micronised linseed oils and Bio-Mos® works from the inside out to create pristine, mirror-like feather gloss on show day!
