Chickens love grubs! A complete natural food source that encourages foraging improves the well-being of your flock and the quality of your eggs.
Soya feed may be cheap, but it is costly to the planet. 80% of the world’s soybean crop gets fed to livestock, and critical habitats such as the Amazon rainforest are being destroyed to make way for it. Combing resource-hungry intensive farming techniques with the end product being shipped halfway around the world results in a huge carbon footprint.
Fishmeal has truly appalling environmental credentials. Pelagic oceanic fish such as menhaden, herring, anchovies, and sardines which form the basis of the aquatic food chain, are dragnetted by factory ships and ground into meal which, again, is shipped across the world as feed for livestock and aquaculture.
