Feed to young chicks from as soon after hatching as possible. Should be fed through until the chicks are 6-8 weeks old, and can be fed on a free access basis. In the week before changing to Poultry Grower Pellets, it is preferable to mix the crumbs and the pellets to ensure a gradual changeover. May also be fed to ducks or geese in an emergency (i.e. when Goose/Duck Starter Crumbs are unavailable) though in general you should be very careful about feeding chick crumbs to ducks as some companies products contain an anti-coccidiostat which can be harmful to them.

A part of the Allen and page small holder range is to ensure their feed is produced using non gm ingredients. They only use soya and maize grown from non-GM seed. Whilst the crops the use cannot be guaranteed gm-free, Allen and page feel they have taken every precaution to ensure that their products have minimal exposure to any possible GM presence. All the ingredients are shown on their product labels.
Smallholder Range Feeds are produced by a family owned, animal feed manufacturer located in the middle of Norfolk . They have four generations of experience in producing animal feed. Their products are made in a non-GM and Drug Free Mill. They use no antibiotics, coccidiostats or artificial yolk pigmenters.
