The Perrin Madox Wheat-Enriched Mineral Pecking Block contains:
Calcium: 27%

These minerals help supplement the nutrients provided by the birds' regular feed.
The block does not replace a complete, balanced diet adapted to each species.
The inclusion of wheat is one of the distinctive features of this mineral block.
Wheat helps make the block more appealing to poultry and pigeons.
By combining cereals with mineral ingredients, the block encourages birds to peck at it while providing a supplementary source of calcium and other minerals.
Pecking is an important natural behaviour in chickens and other poultry.
The solid block format allows birds to explore and peck at its surface.
This activity provides occupation and can contribute to environmental enrichment as part of good poultry management.
The Perrin Madox Wheat-Enriched Mineral Pecking Block can therefore be incorporated into a wider approach combining appropriate nutrition, sufficient space and suitable rearing conditions.
The Perrin Madox Wheat-Enriched Mineral Pecking Block is particularly suitable for:
Laying hens.

Ducks and geese.
Pigeons.
Its convenient 900 g format makes it suitable for small flocks, backyard poultry keeping and pigeon lofts.
Leave the mineral block available to birds in a clean, dry place.
It can be used indoors or in outdoor poultry runs, provided it is protected from rain and moisture.
Avoid placing the block directly next to drinking troughs.
Always provide fresh, clean drinking water.
