Who is this suitable for?
Suitable for chickens and chicks — valuable during growth, moulting, or for laying hens. For very young chicks: feed in moderation and keep their grower feed primary. If you are unsure about the right age to start, consult your veterinarian or poultry specialist.
Usage & dosage
Give a handful daily as a tasty snack, as a supplement to complete chicken feed such as Complete Feed — never as a replacement. Always ensure fresh drinking water is available.
Additional advice from our chicken experts
For extra strength, combine with Power Mix, or choose even more protein-rich variety with Dried Mini Crayfish or Dried Mealworms. Also provide sufficient Pikmix or grit and Oyster Shell so that chickens and chicks can digest everything properly.

Gammarus are small, dried crustaceans naturally rich in proteins and essential amino acids — important building blocks for growth, muscles, and feathers.
Is this suitable for chicks?
Yes, but feed very young chicks gammarus in moderation and keep their grower feed primary. If you are unsure about the right age, consult your veterinarian or poultry specialist.
Can I combine this with my standard chicken feed?
Certainly — give gammarus as a supplement to complete chicken feed like Complete Feed, never as a replacement. A handful per day is sufficient.
When is this snack especially valuable?
Especially during the growth of chicks, moulting, or for laying hens who can benefit from extra protein.
How do I keep the gammarus fresh?
Store the gammarus dry, cool, and sealed in their original resealable stand-up pouch; they will keep for a long time.
How do gammarus differ from mini crayfish or mealworms?
