Why 20% Protein?
Giving young birds a strong start lays the foundation for lifelong health and productivity. Higher protein supports rapid muscle development, feather growth, and immune strength during their most critical growth stages.
For laying breeds, early access to balanced, high-protein nutrition ensures their bodies mature properly, leading to better bone structure and stronger laying hips—essential for safe, consistent egg production.
Starting right means stronger birds, fewer problems, and better yields for your flock
Niacin
Niacin, or vitamin B3, is crucial for poultry as it plays a key role in energy metabolism, feather development, and overall health. Adequate levels of niacin help prevent growth issues, maintain a healthy digestive system, and support proper nerve function in birds.
At Pitter Patter Pond & Pasture, we chose to raise duck who require a higher level of niacin. We ensure that our poultry feed contains the proper ratios of niacin to support the well-being and productivity of your flock, promoting robust growth and vitality throughout their life stages.
Our feed has been analyzed and shown to contain a niacin level of 60-80 mg/kg, meeting the requirements for ducks, and suitable for chickens and other breeds with no health concerns.
Fertrell Poultry Nutri-Balancer
To ensure our feed will meet all the nutritional requirements for all poultry livestock we use a Nutri-Balancer in our feed. It is comprised of the necessary minerals, vitamins, and microbes to provide your livestock with a healthy and nourishing feed for maximum production and quality of life.
