Made in France
Perrin Madox Aniseed-Scented Grit is a blend of mineral particles specially formulated for pigeons, laying hens, chickens, turkeys, guinea fowl, ducks and geese.
With a particle size of 2–5 mm, it combines calcium-rich materials with insoluble mineral particles that support the mechanical function of the gizzard.
Particularly suitable for birds fed seeds and grains, this grit complements their daily diet.
Crushed Marine Shells: A Natural Source of Calcium
Naturally rich in calcium carbonate, marine shells contribute to the mineral intake required for skeletal development and maintenance. In laying poultry, calcium also plays an important role in eggshell formation.
Quartzite: Helps Grind Food
Quartzite is a hard, insoluble mineral rock. In the gizzard, it helps mechanically grind seeds and grains, breaking them down before digestion.
Flint: Long-Lasting Mechanical Action
Thanks to its hardness and durability, flint also contributes to the grinding action of the gizzard, particularly in birds consuming whole grains.
Red Mineral Stone: A Traditional Mineral Ingredient
Red mineral stone adds another mineral component to the blend. Naturally coloured by iron oxides, it contributes to the variety of particles available to birds.
Charcoal: A Traditional Grit Ingredient
Charcoal completes the Madox Grit formulation. It has traditionally been used in mineral grit mixtures for pigeons and poultry.
Madox Grit is scented with aniseed, a feature designed to make it more appealing to birds.
Its mixture of particles in different colours and textures makes it a practical supplement for pigeon and poultry farming.
Make Madox Grit available to birds in a suitable feeder or container, allowing them to consume it freely according to their needs.
For proper storage and use:
Keep the product protected from moisture.
Avoid placing it directly next to drinking troughs.
Store bags in a dry place.
Always provide a balanced diet and access to clean drinking water.
