Gritty chickens pay attention

Feeding chickens with gravel helps increase the grinding power of the muscles of the stomach and can increase feed utilization. However, if the grit size and amount of chicken are fed improperly, it will affect the digestion and absorption of feed. 1. Grit texture. Choose harder, insoluble gravel to feed the chicken. 2. Grit size. For chicks up to 2 weeks of age, the grain size of the gravel to be fed is preferably small grain size. With the increase of the age of the chicken, the size of the grits in the gravel should be suitable, and the amount of feed should also increase; for young chickens and adult chickens The gravel should be fed with bean size. 3. The amount of gravel feed. Generally, the amount of gravel fed per 100 young hens in cages is 200-250 g per week, and 420-460 g per 100 grits per week is preferred. 4. Feeding method. Caged chickens can set up gravel tanks in the cages or feed them with sand and grits. It is best to use loose sand to spread the gravel in the playground and allow chickens to feed freely.

Millets are a group of highly variable small-seeded grasses, widely grown around the world as cereal crops or grains for fodder and human food. Millets are important crops in the semiarid tropics of Asia and Africa (especially in India, Mali, Nigeria, and Niger), with 97% of millet production in developing countries. The crop is favored due to its productivity and short growing season under dry, high-temperature conditions. In a 100 gram serving, raw millet provides 378 calories and is a rich source (20% or more of the Daily Value, DV) of protein, dietary fiber, several B vitamins and numerous dietary minerals, especially manganese at 76% DV (USDA nutrient table). Raw millet is 9% water, 73% carbohydrates, 4% fat and 11% protein.
