Frequently Asked Questions

The puffed amaranth and puffed millet are light, soft, and bite-sized, which makes them easy for tiny beaks to pick up and swallow safely. Black soldier fly larvae add a concentrated source of protein, calcium, and healthy fats that support fast-growing bodies during the brooder stage. It's also safe for your adult flock to enjoy once your chicks join the flock.
Black soldier fly larvae are an insect protein source that chickens naturally seek out when foraging outdoors. In dried form, they're a concentrated, shelf-stable way to deliver high-quality protein and calcium to growing chicks. In Chickeratti, they contribute to the high protein content that baby chicks need for rapid feathering and muscle development.
Yes. Once you introduce any food beyond their finely-milled starter feed, place a small dish of chick grit in the brooder so your chicks can properly grind up the puffed grains and larvae. Offer grit free-choice in a separate dish rather than mixed into their feed, since chicks can eat too much if it's combined with their main food.
Treats should make up no more than 10% of your chicks' daily diet, with starter feed making up the rest. For a small brooder flock, a light sprinkle once or twice a day is plenty. Chickeratti supplements an already balanced diet and is not a meal replacement, so starter feed should always be available free-choice alongside it.
Chickeratti is sized for the brooder stage, so you can start offering it once your chicks are settled in and eating and drinking well. If your chicks just arrived, give them a couple of days to find their footing on starter feed and fresh water before adding anything new. When you're ready, a light sprinkle once or twice a day is plenty.
