Nachmittagssnack für Hühner – Banane & Beeren

How often can I feed this porridge to my chickens?

Feed this porridge 2-3 times per week as an afternoon treat. Remember that treats should only make up around 10% of your chickens' daily diet, with the majority being complete layers feed.

Why should I feed this in the afternoon?

Afternoon feeding ensures your chickens have already consumed their essential layers pellets or mash in the morning. This timing provides complete nutrition first, then adds a healthy treat for extra protein and energy.

How many chickens does 600g serve?

One 600g pouch provides approximately 8-12 servings, depending on flock size. A typical serving for 4-6 chickens is about 50-75g of dry mix.

Do I have to use hot water?

Hot water helps create the perfect porridge consistency and releases the aromatic banana scent chickens love. However, always allow it to cool to a safe temperature before serving.

Can I feed this to chicks?

This porridge is formulated for adult chickens. For chicks, we recommend sticking to starter feed until they're at least 8 weeks old.

Will this replace my chickens' regular feed?

No, this is a supplemental treat. Your chickens still need their complete layers pellets or mash as their main diet to ensure they receive all essential nutrients for health and egg production.

How should I store the porridge mix?

Keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For best freshness and aroma, use within 6 months of opening.

My chickens have never had porridge before. Will they eat it?

Is this suitable for all chicken breeds?

Can I feed this to ducks or other poultry?

This product contains oats, pea protein, and fruits. If your chicken has known sensitivities or is on a restricted diet for health reasons, please consult your veterinarian before introducing new treats.

Does this help with egg production?

While the high protein content may support overall health and vitality, this is a treat rather than a layer feed. Consistent egg production depends primarily on a complete layers diet, adequate water, and proper care.
