"My chickens love sunflower seeds." — Rashida B., verified review
Why choose Sunflower Seeds?
Chicken keepers like to give sunflower seeds, because:
- Nutritious & energy-rich — healthy fats and proteins for extra energy and vitality
- Challenging & active — chickens stay busy pecking and foraging longer, ideal against boredom
- For strong feathers — essential fatty acids and vitamin E support a shiny plumage
- Flexible to use — as a daily treat, hand-taming snack, or addition to feed

Who is this suitable for?
Suitable for all chicken breeds and ages. Especially valuable during molting (feather growth) and in winter (extra energy and warmth).
Usage & dosage
Sprinkle a handful per day as a supplement to complete chicken feed such as Complete Feed — never as a replacement. Due to the high fat content, this is a real energy snack: give in moderation, especially outside molting and winter, to prevent obesity.
Additional advice from our chicken experts
Also provide sufficient Pikmix or grit and Oyster grit alongside. For extra resistance and digestion, combine with Multi Herbal Drinkmix, or choose more variety with Scratch Grains.
