FAQs
What is the primary purpose of SQUAWK Chicken Corn Extra?
It serves as a nutrient-rich supplement for free-range chickens, providing energy, supporting feather and beak health, and aiding egg production. It also encourages natural foraging behaviors.
How much SQUAWK Chicken Corn Extra should I give my chickens?
As a supplement, a general guideline is 1-2 tablespoons per chicken per day, scattered on the ground. Adjust based on your flock's size, activity level, and main diet.
Can this be their only food source?
No, SQUAWK Chicken Corn Extra is a supplement and should not be the sole food source for your chickens. They require a balanced diet of commercial feed or a complete alternative.
How should I store the product?
Store the sealed tub in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Reseal the tub tightly after each use.
What are the benefits for egg production?
The blend of nutrients, protein, and energy is formulated to support the health of laying hens, which can contribute to the quality and production of their eggs.
Does this product help with feather growth?
Yes, it is rich in vitamins that are beneficial for developing strong, healthy feathers.
What sizes are available?
SQUAWK Chicken Corn Extra is available in 1L, 2.5L, 5L, and 10L sizes.
Troubleshooting
Chickens are not interested in the corn.
Ensure the corn is fresh. Try scattering it in a new area or at a different time of day. It may take time for them to adapt to a new treat.
Excessive waste or spoilage.
Reduce the amount offered daily. Only provide what your chickens can consume within a reasonable time frame to prevent spoilage and pest attraction.
Feathers appear dull or brittle.
While this feed is enriched, ensure it is part of a balanced diet. Assess their primary feed for adequate protein and vitamin content. Consult a poultry nutritionist if concerns persist.
