The ingredients are as follows: Oyster Shell, Oregano, Calendula, Rosemary, Mint, Cornflower, Chamomile, Lavender, Rose, and Basil. And our newest ingredient, Crushed Red Pepper.
Oyster shell is the main ingredient because it is so purposeful. Oyster shell contains calcium and will improve the hardness of the shells from your laying hens.
Oregano is a broad spectrum natural antibiotic.
Calendula is one of the flowers we grow at Three Way Flower Farm in early spring. Also known as Pot Marigold, it provides egg yolks with a beautiful orange color and also has powerful healing powers.
Rosemary is one of the best herbs you can give your chickens because it is high in a variety of vitamins and minerals that are important for their overall health.
Besides being nutritious for chickens to eat, mint can help repel bugs and mice as well. Place the mints around the coop and it will keep these pests away.
Moreover, for nesting chickens, ingredients such as, cornflower (aka bachelor buttons), chamomile, lavender, and rose can do wonders for the best smelling and tasting eggs.
Basil has essential vitamins and minerals that the chickens need to stay healthy.
Crushed red pepper is a natural dewormer and chickens are not affected by the spiciness of capsaicin.
Treat them like the divas they are, and throw your laying hens a party today!
