Maxi Chicks Duck Breeder
The Epol Maxi Chicks Duck Breeder is a specialized production pellet designed for adult ducks from the point of lay onward. It is scientifically balanced to provide all the essential nutrients required for consistent egg production, high hatchability, and the healthy development of offspring. The pellet format is used to reduce selective feeding and minimize wastage, ensuring the flock receives uniform nutrition.

Key Features
This breeder diet is fortified with a specific blend of minerals (including Calcium and Phosphorus) and vitamins to support the skeletal integrity of the laying duck and the shell quality of the eggs. It contains a combination of grains, grain by-products, plant and animal protein products, and added oils. To maximize performance, the formula also includes amino acids and enzymes to aid in nutrient absorption. Note that this product may contain registered stock remedies; always check the bag tag for specific instructions.
Feeding Recommendations
For breeding ducks, this pellet should be fed as a complete ration without the addition of extra grain, which could dilute the nutrient balance. While ducks are often foragers, providing continuous access to this balanced feed ensures optimal egg production. It is critical to manage the weight of meat-type ducks (like Pekins) during their development; overweight hens often produce significantly fewer eggs. Always provide clean, fresh water, and ensure feeders are at the correct height (level with the ducks' backs) to minimize spoilage and wastage.
