Corn-Free Grain Mix for Silkies: Leimüller Silkie Chicken Feed without Corn

Leimüller Silkie Chicken Feed without Corn is a corn-free grain mix tailored to Silkie chickens and other ornamental breeds. Wheat, brewing barley, rolled oats and hulled sunflower seeds make up the daily base ration. The grains are gently processed and cleaned several times, which keeps the feed dust-free and makes it readily accepted.

In poultry feed, corn is by far the richest source of carotenoids such as lutein and zeaxanthin. These natural pigments are deposited in skin, fat and feathers and give white plumage a yellow tinge. Keepers of white Silkies, and anyone showing their birds, therefore feed without corn on purpose. That is exactly what this mix is built for.

Questions & Answers:

Why Silkie chicken feed without corn?
Corn is high in lutein and zeaxanthin. These yellow pigments settle in the plumage and can make white feathers look yellowish. A corn-free ration avoids that.

Which chickens is the mix suitable for?
It is tailored to Silkies and other ornamental breeds, but works just as well for other pure-bred poultry.

Does the feed contain animal ingredients?
No. The mix consists purely of wheat, brewing barley, rolled oats and hulled sunflower seeds, so it may also be fed to chickens kept for food production.
