🌱❄️ Spring is almost here… but winter isn’t over yet...
The days are getting longer, but for much of the country, cold weather is still sticking around. Now’s the time to give your flock a late-winter nutrition boost to keep them happy and healthy as we transition into spring.
Here are 5 ways to support your flock right now:
1️⃣ Sprout our Organic Peas or Barley to give your birds some much-needed greens and encourage foraging before plants start popping up outside. 🌿
2️⃣ Boost their protein with our 18% protein Organic Layer Pellets or Layer Mash—perfect for cold-weather nutrition. 🥚
3️⃣ Toss your flock some GRUBS for an extra protein boost (and to remind them how much they love you!). ❤️
4️⃣ Don't forget the ducks! Our feeds and treats are great for both chickens AND ducks. 🦆
5️⃣ Spring is right around the corner! Before you know it, you’ll be soaking up the sunshine with your flock instead of bundling up to keep them warm. ☀️

With Spring Chick Season around the corner and egg prices on everyone’s mind, now is the perfect time to think ahead about flock planning. Whether you're starting fresh with baby chicks or expanding an existing flock, what you feed your birds matters—not just for their health, but for the quality of the eggs they lay.
A well-fed flock produces strong, nutrient-rich eggs, and that starts with organic, Non-GMO feed made from the highest quality ingredients. By choosing a complete, wholesome diet, you're investing in healthier birds, better eggs, and a more sustainable future.
As you gear up for the season, make sure your flock gets the best from the start. Link in bio to shop Certified Organic, Non-GMO feed that’s made with care right here in North America. 🛒🐓
💬 Tell us in the comments: What breeds are you adding to your flock this season? Or if you’re not adding, what’s your dream chicken breed? 🐥👇

🌱🐓 Pea shoots may be small, but they deliver BIG benefits for your feathered friends! These nutrient-dense microgreens are packed with vitamins, essential amino acids, minerals, and protein, making them a fantastic supplement to your flock’s diet. While hens are omnivores, pea and bean sprouts offer a great source of plant-based protein to keep them thriving.
How to Grow Pea Shoots for Your Flock:
1️⃣ Soak 1 part our Organic Sprouting Peas in 2 parts water for 12 hours in a mason jar. This removes the protective outer coating, making the peas more digestible and releasing their nutrients.
2️⃣ Drain & Plant – Spread the hydrated peas over moist potting soil in a container (tip: an old feed bag works great when rolled down!). Gently press them in and cover with plastic wrap.
3️⃣ Grow & Feed – Once the peas sprout, move them to a sunny spot and water as needed. In a few days, you’ll have pea shoots 3-4 inches tall—perfect for a nutritious snack!
💡 Reminder: This is a supplemental treat and should not replace a complete chicken feed.

How good is your flock's recall? Free-ranging is great for chickens, but having a reliable way to call them back to the coop is essential—especially in case of an emergency. 🦅🦝
One of the easiest and most effective recall methods? Shaking a can of irresistible treats. But here’s the key: the treat has to be better than whatever they’re finding while foraging. That’s why our Grubs work. Packed with protein and naturally delicious, they bring the whole flock running—every time.
The early bird gets the grub! 🐛 Ready to stock up? Link in bio to order now.
