Organic Poultry Feed: Organic feeding for chickens, ducks and quail

Organic Poultry Feed: The whole organic range for your smallholding

With organic poultry feed, you feed chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys and quail with ingredients from certified organic farming. Here you will find the entire organic range in one place, from chick starter through grower and layers feed to finisher feed. On top of that there is organic quail layer feed, organic feed for ducks and geese, grain mixes, pure grain and organic soya cake.

Organic feed by species

Every kind of poultry has its own needs. For laying hens there is organic layers mash, pellets and complete layers rations, and pullets and chicks have rations of their own. Turkeys and slow-growing table birds get organic finisher feed with extra protein. Ducks and geese share a pelleted organic complete feed and a grain mix, and laying quail have their own protein-rich organic special feed. That way you will find the right feed for every species and every age.

Mixing your own with organic grain

Many keepers like to mix part of the ration themselves. Organic barley, organic wheat, organic oats and organic cracked maize are ideal for this. Organic soya cake adds protein to your own mix. It is important that grain only makes up part of the diet. The basis always remains an organic complete feed that supplies all nutrients in a balanced ratio. Grain is then the afternoon treat.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between organic and conventional poultry feed?
The ingredients come from certified organic farming, genetic modification is ruled out and stricter rules apply to additives. The nutrient supply is just as carefully tailored to each species. Many keepers choose it because they want eggs and meat from as natural a system as possible on their table.

Can I feed different kinds of poultry with one organic feed?
In some cases, such as ducks and geese, which can share an organic complete feed. Chickens, quail and turkeys, on the other hand, have clearly different needs for protein and calcium. If you keep a mixed flock, separate feeding stations are worthwhile.

How do I switch to organic feed?
Mix the new organic feed into the old feed gradually over about a week. That way the birds get used to the taste and texture, and their digestion stays stable. Chickens in particular tend to be suspicious of new feed at first.
