Auer: organic for the hen house and the stable
The range from Auer has a clear focus: organic feed and grain for animals on the farm. Laying hens and horses are at the centre, together with straights that let you put together your own mix. Most products come in a practical 25 kg sack, which makes sense for hobby keepers with a small flock as well as for larger yards.

Horse owners will find Bio Pferdemüsli Pferdeglück Natur organic horse muesli and organic black oats, and with organic lucerne pellets you add high-fibre forage to the ration. That way one brand covers a large part of the feeding on an organic farm.
Frequently asked questions
Is a grain mix enough to feed laying hens?
No, grain alone provides too little protein and minerals for good laying performance. Use layer feed as the main feed and only scatter the grain mix in the run as an extra.
What is special about black oats?
Black oats are a variety of oats with dark husks. Many horse owners value them as an easily digestible grain that you can feed just like ordinary oats.
