The Diatomaceous Earth is milled to a particle size of between approximately 0.5 mm to 4.00 mm,. It is a perfect additive for mixing with regular chook pellets or laying mash, or bird food, as the finer powder has been removed.
Of all farm animals, chickens and ducks respond the fastest to natural silica supplementation. Scientific trials show that when assessed against a control group, chickens fed DE were noticeably larger, with more meat, stronger bones healthier and free of parasites.
Research has found that this ratio of DE to feed (15:85) will control any worms that are present in the stomach of the birds and will reduce the smell emitted by droppings.* The absence of any internal parasites as well as the improved overall health and well-being of the birds, can lead to measurable weight increases. *Endicott-Davies (2010)
