What is it?
Hen Pecked is our delicious ‘henergy-bar’ pecking block for hens. Perfect for hentertaining your girls if they are feeling a little cooped-up. Hook on a wire run, hang from string or feed from the ground.
What is it for?
Hen Pecked is the perfect treat for hens. As it takes much longer to eat than loose seeds in a bowl, it will help to prevent boredom, and promote hen enrichment by keeping them busy for longer. It is packed with nutritious and tasty ingredients including sunflower seeds, raisins and peanuts, with added oyster shell and grit.
During times such as housing orders, ‘flockdown’ and when chickens can’t free range, it is important to add enrichment to their living area. This will help to prevent bullying, feather pecking etc amoung the flock. Providing Hen Pecked, and Peck A Brix pecking blocks are an easy way to keep your hens busy and encourage natural foraging behaviours to reduce stress.
How is it Made?
Our Hen Pecked pecking block for hens is made and packed in the UK under the highest feed assurance standards. It contains kibbled maize, kibbled wheat, kibbled peas, sunflower hearts, red dari, raisins, black sunflower seeds, peanuts, oyster shell, flint grit, vegetable oil and edible binder.
Feeding Instructions
Hook on the run, hang from string or feed from the ground (hanging from string will help it to last longer!) Feed as a treat. We recommend one Hen Pecked per 4 – 6 chickens.
