Maize Crushed

Crushed Maize – Poultry Feed & Energy Supplement

Crushed Maize is a coarsely ground maize grain that provides a concentrated source of energy for chickens and other poultry. Its coarse texture makes it easy to mix with other grains, pellets or feed blends, making it a versatile addition to a poultry feeding programme.

Maize is naturally rich in carbohydrates and provides dietary energy that can help support normal growth, body condition and egg production when included as part of a balanced poultry diet.

Ideal for backyard chickens, laying hens and other poultry, Crushed Maize can be mixed with complete feeds or offered as part of a varied grain ration.

Feeding Guide

Crushed Maize should be fed as part of a balanced poultry diet rather than used as the sole feed.

It can be mixed with complete poultry feeds, laying pellets or other suitable grains according to the nutritional requirements of the flock.

Because maize is primarily an energy source and does not provide a complete balance of protein, vitamins and minerals on its own, ensure poultry have access to an appropriately formulated complete feed.

Always provide fresh, clean drinking water.
