Healthy chicken treats can help tame a flock, offer variety, and add additional animal proteins. But they should only be given sparingly; best served in combination with complete chicken feed for best results.
Garvo offers an assortment of products designed to ensure healthy and robust chickens, whether kept at home in your back garden or competing at shows. These include mash and pellet feeds as well as corn mixtures supplemented with protein/mineral-rich pellets or grit.

Alfamix Chickens
Garvo offers an impressive range of high quality GM free chicken feeds. Their products cover everything from basic chicken mash with no pellets for free-range birds to sophisticated premium feeds designed for fancy species such as pheasants, quails, peacocks and more. There’s even an array of supplements perfect for adding complete poultry diets.
Alfamix Chickens provides adult chickens with all of the nutrition required to produce eggs in an environmentally-friendly fashion, including seeds, protein/mineral-rich pellets, and dried shrimp flakes (gammarus). This diet ensures their bodies have all of the essential vitamins and minerals for successful egg laying.
Mixes of grains and seeds also encourage foraging – which keeps chickens active and happy! You can distribute this feed across your chicken run or mix it into their regular diet; just be aware that too many treats could disturb their nutritional needs when laying their eggs!
Chicken Treats
Treats can be an enjoyable way to treat your flock, but it’s essential that they do not account for more than 10% of their diet. They should instead serve as supplements that contain all of the protein, calcium, vitamins, and minerals required for healthy birds that produce beautiful eggs.
Pasta can make an inexpensive yet filling treat for your chickens; just under two cups is sufficient to feed a flock of six chickens, providing complete nutrition (with even some grit).
Chickens love berries! Just scatter a few fresh variety in their chicken run and watch as they devour these sweet morsels! Grain mixtures featuring protein/mineral-rich pellets or chicken grit can also provide healthy treats for them.
Alfamix Corn

Perfect for all types of poultry including laying hens and other varieties such as pheasants, partridges and peacocks alike – even those that prefer the hunt can enjoy this deluxe mix!
